Photography gear I use

I utilize the highest quality equipment that is available on the market for up-to-date and optimal performance which provide sharp and detailed images. When I can I always use Canon L glass. Time and time again this glass has proven to give the best sharpness and lenses in the L series focus much faster and must more accurate than other lenses on the market. The Canon R5 has AI eye detection ensuring that all of the fotos come out perfectly focused and amazing.
