Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS USM:
While it weighs almost four pounds, it's an excellent all-purpose
lens since it zooms between 28mm which is great for wide angle
shots, and 300mm which gets you really close. It's the perfect lens
if you're going to be wandering around a city and only want to carry
one lens
-
Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM: This
lens is my pride and joy. It is f/2.8 all the way through so even
zoomed in to 200mm it lets in a ton of light. Great for candids at
events or other low light situations like school gymnasiums
-
Canon Extender EF 2x II: This
attaches to the 70-200 and doubles its reach to 140-400. The
downside is that it cuts down the light that makes it into the
camera making it an f/5
-
Canon Extender EF 1.4x II: This is
the same as the extender above, but only increases its reach by a
multiplier of 1.4. On the plus side it only adds one f-stop so a lot
of light still gets in and makes the lens an f/3.8
-
Canon EOS 40D: (the one pictured
below is my old 30D) I love this camera,
it's 10 Megapixel, very fast and takes great pictures
-
Canon Speedlite 580EX II: This flash
provides outstanding lighting and acts as a master for my other
Speedlite 580 so I can light a subject from multiple angles
-
Canon EF-S 17-85MM f4-5.6 IS USM: (on
the camera) This is my all purpose shooter. It allows nice wide
angle shots at 17mm, but gives me a moderate zoom into 85mm. It's a
great lens to take if you want to keep it lightweight and don't want
to take a bunch of lenses
-
Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM:
This is the ultimate in wide angle lens. You can stand right next to
someone and fit them entirely in the picture. It's great for
shooting rooms and group shots when you can't get far enough back to
fit everyone in
-
Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM: This
is a great lens for shooting little things close up like bugs, but
is also outstanding for portraits
-
Canon Timer Remote Controller
TC-80N3: This allows me to do a couple key things. One, I don't have
to stand behind the camera when I have it on the tripod, I can stand
next to it and direct the action, and most importantly it has a
timer on it so I can set the camera to take shots at selected
intervals for time lapse shots, or shots that I want to be in.

Not Pictured: Canon PowerShot SD900
IS: This is my tiny little digital camera I use when I don't want to
drag the big camera around and the shots are less critical. It fits
in my pocket, has 12 Megapixel resolution, and I have an underwater
case for it so I can take pictures of fish and turtles
