Photography Gear

Photography... in the '80s and '90s a sort of dormant hobby of mine (or: unavoidable sidekick of the other hobbies :-)), but it really came back to life with the introduction of the digital cameras. Nowadays, photography is among my most passionate of interests.

Initially starting out digital-photography with a Nikon CoolPix 950 in 1999, I've been exclusively using Canon cameras for many years now. After progressing through a compact PowerShot S1 IS and an EOS 350D DSLR, my main camera is now the Canon EOS 450D. It was with the EOS 350D back in 2005 that I began to take photography more serious.

My current photo gear consists of:
