WHAT IS MY BAG

Main Backpack:

I did alot of research on camera bags that would handle hiking - possibly over night and I settled on the Atlas Bags.  I first bought the larger Adventure Bag - this is great when you need to bring extra gear not camera related and would work for overnight hiking.  It was great for my Utah trip.  I then decided I would like a smaller bag for day hikes and so I purchased the Athlete and am loving it.

 

Below is a list of my camera equipment

MY CAMERAS

My Main Camera is a full-frame  Canon EOS 5DS R .  I am in love with this camera!  I have had it for about 3 years and I am still blown away by the amount of detail I can get with it. It is a 50 Megapixel Camera

My 2nd camera body (and my Kayak camera) is an Canon  80D , a 24 megapixel crop sensor.  It is perfect for a 2nd camera. It is known for its video capabilities also and I try to utilize that upon occasion.

MY LENSES

Canon EF 24–105mm f/4L II USM Lens - This is my go to lens.  I keep it on my camera body most the time.

Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L USM Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras  - This is my wide angle lens.

Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens for Canon Digital SLR Cameras - This is one of my favorites lens.  I use it for macro.  It is image stabalized so that helps with catching insects.

Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens Great Zoom lens.  I also have the version I which I use when on the Kayak.

Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Canon EF

Sigma 15mm f/2.8 EX DG Diagonal Fisheye Lens for Canon SLR Cameras

Canon EF 2.0X III Telephoto Extender for Canon Super Telephoto Lenses - This is a great way to extend my 100-400mm lens. You lose auto focus so you learn to be good at manual focus on the fly.
