My cameras
by bayphoto on Jul.28, 2009, under My Photo Gears
Well, I am a Nikonian who uses Nikon cameras and lens exclusively. I have no bias against other photo equipment manufacturers. It is just Nikon that gives me the best result and it makes the most reliable professional cameras. Currently, I use D700 and D300 at the same time for event shooting to capture the events from different angles and to insure the quality of the images.
Nikon D700 is a full-frame professional camera that provides 12.1MP resolution. Its superb 51-point auto-focus ability and low-light performance also beat my expectations. I enjoy low-light in-door shooting a lot with this pet. The lens that I use most with this camera is Nikon 24-70mm F2.8, simply the best zoom lens in the market. It focus super fast and provides razor-sharp images.

Nikon D300 is a professional DX format camera that can give me a longer reach or a wider range whenever I need it. It can be used with either Nikon 12-24mm or 10.5mm fish-eye lens for a wide-angle effect. It can also be used with Nikon 85mm F1.4 or Nikon 105mm F2.8 or Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 VR lens for the long range.

I am going to talk about flashes in the next post of my photo gears.
