The Equipment I use ...

As many of you know I use Canon products - not because they are better than the other brands, it's just what I have always been comfortable with. I started photography back in the early 70's (yeah, I'm that old) with a Canon AV1 and and I later added a Canon AT1, so it was a natural choice for me to go digital with Canon.
