This is my collection of video/audio equipment & blogging resources and that I use and recommend. Support me by buying through these links if you're interested in anything!
Cameras
  |
Canon EOS R (2019-present) – My main camera for shooting YouTube videos. Love the quality zoom L lens. |
 |
Sony A7S II (2017-present) – My Sony full frame mirrorless camera. A powerhouse packed into a small form factor, I'll take this camera traveling for creative video captures. |
 |
Canon EOS 80D (2016-2019) – My previous main camera for “talking head” shots. Great for its fast and accurate auto-focus, which is really convenient for video. |
  |
Canon G7X Mark II (2018-present) – My point & shoot camera for traveling, small enough to take anywhere. |
Lenses
 |
Sigma 30mm f/1.4 – My go to lens for the Canon 80D. This lens is so beautiful. F/1.4 opens up the aperture to let a lot of light in and create that beautiful depth of field. |
 |
Sony 24-70mm f/4 – My all-purpose lens for the Sony A7S II. My main lens for travel photography, vlogging, and videography. |
