Anyone that knows me knows I love landscape photography. Getting out with the camera, whether on my own, or with friends, is great especially when the conditions are jaw dropping.

I have pre-ordered the Sony A7RII (ILCE-7RM2) which I find pretty exciting for many reasons but I won’t go into the main advantages over my current A7R.

‘ve been thinking about writing an article on what I think drove me, and perhaps others, into landscape photography. If someone had said 3 years ago that I was going to get up at 3am to shoot the sun rising, after a long drive, to a remote location, taking 30 mins to walk there in…

This is a continuation of my initial review of the B-Grip Uno Camera Holster. I have used it over the past few weeks either out scouting locations, macros but also on a few landscaping photography trips as well. I have to say I don’t use belt holsters for my work. I don’t wear a belt…
