For years I worked with 35mm and medium format film cameras.  Nikon has always been my body of choice for 35mm format, and I have owned several different models. These include the N6006, FM2n and the F100.  I also have a Pentax67 medium format camera which received quite a bit of use over the years.  In 2006 I moved into digital photography with the acquisition of a Nikon digital SLR.  While I still use film on occasion, it is usually for special purpose situations only.  Digital has become my everyday photo format.

I utilize lenses ranging from 12mm super-wide angle to 500mm telephoto.  Most are Nikkor lenses with a couple of pro-quality Tokina ATX lenses in the mix.  Some are newer models, some are quite old.  I sometimes use a 1.4 teleconverter or extension tubes to extend the capabilities of some of the lenses.  I also have a Nikkor 105mm micro (close-up) lens.  I utilize very few filters.  The ones I do use, when shooting film, and depending on conditions, are polarizers to reduce glare, and warming filters, such as the 81a or 81b, to "warm up" some colors, to reduce the "blues" when photographing in shade, and to improve overall color saturation. When shooting digital, the only filter I occasionally use is the polarizer.

When shooting film, I always use transparency (slide) film.  I have used primarily Fuji film over the years, though with my shift to digital my film use has decreased dramatically.

I estimate 90% of my photos are taken with my camera either mounted securely on a tripod or, when need be, some other make-shift support.  My tripod is a very sturdy model made by Gitzo.  It is topped off with an Arca-Swiss B1 ball-style tripod head with a quick release camera/lens mount.

When in the field, I carry my equipment in a photo backpack. If going light with just a body and a couple of lenses, I'll use a smaller day pack or shoulder bag.  The tripod is usually slung over my shoulder.
