My Equipment

Back in 1998 shooting with my first digital camera, I noticed a very painful reality with digital...shutterlag! My quest to find a camera with zero shutterlag brought me to the Nikon family of D-SLR camera's. Below is a list of my current gear that I use to capture all my images.

Primary: Nikon D3, a Flagship pro D-SLR with a 12.1-MP FX-format CMOS sensor, blazing 9 fps shooting at full FX resolution and low-noise performance up to 6400 ISO.


Secondary: Nikon D200 Digital SLR 10MP 5 fps


I am now experimenting with a SeaLife Reefmaster mini 6mp f2/8 Underwater camera to capture reef life.
