How life changed since I took the first photographs, in “analog”, but equipped with a machine that, at that time, was a great brand. Leica
Life has changed. Different priorities and, for a long time, I did not return to photography.
As I believe that nothing happens by chance, twenty years later, I droped in the middle of digital photography.
I had to relearn a lot, read a lot, take some courses (for this purpose I strongly recommend the course, in my case, online given the location of the photographic school, the New York Institute of Photography,
and in particular the Professional Photography Course) that I complemented with a course and enrolment at the Professional Photographers of America -PPA, an entity of worldwide repercussion.
Enriched with these basic notions, it was a matter of months before the bug came back and, nowadays, I wake up and fall asleep thinking about photography.
My first machine was a Canon 5D Mark III, which is still one of my favourites even with its 300,000 shots.
I also use an APS, the Canon 90D, this one is more recent.
In the world of photography, in terms of equipment, I think the most important are the lenses and, for that, I acquired the classic Canon 24-105mm of the L series (the famous red line) as the first and most versatile.
It made and still makes great photos, in many different situations.
Also, I needed to have the most basic lens they are able to teach us the first steps. The Canon 50mm.
For Portrait and macro I use what is considered the sharpest lenses on the market, the Canon Macro 100mm L. line .
As I was, for many years, a hunter, is not surprising that I also dedicate myself to wildlife photography. That's why I use the Tamron Telephoto Lens 100-400mm, light and very precise.
To complete this modest range and as I mainly do Landscape Photography, my “companions” for this purpose are: the previously referred Tamron 100-400mm and the Sigma 20mm - 1.4 series Art.
Much more I have to say about all these “companions” but it is for the next post.
