I like to constantly change the genres I photograph to keep learning. I encourage anyone to keep looking back at their portfolio – it’s amazing to see how your style develops over the years. Good ergonomics, excellent lenses and easy-to-use menu systems are the reasons why I stay loyal to Nikon. I’ve used film, bridge and DSLR cameras; they’ve never let me down. Nikon remains the best camera manufacturer for sure! The mirrorless Z-series – and the Z 5 in particular – is something I’m excited to use going forward. But I took my trusty Nikon D3500 on this mission. I’ve had this camera for a few years now, and it’s a real brute.
