Great photography… and a great story too.

Inspiration, Q&A

I’m curious what camera gear was used for these amazing images.

The photographer is Joakim Eskildsen.  I looked him up and in the past he has used medium format film cameras, especially the Pentax 67.  However, the images in the article look digital.  Either way, his work is quite impressive.

UPDATE March 23, 2018:  Thanks to a dear reader who contacted Mr. Eskildsen, I can now confirm that the images in the article were taken with a Pentax 67 (+ 55mm or 75mm lens).

My Camera(s) of the year (for 2017).

Inspiration, Q&A, Teaching point

A little late in coming, but I needed to be sure.

My camera(s) of the year:

1. Nikon D850 (for general photography).

2. Nikon D500 (for sports/action).

With these two cameras, there is nothing I can’t photograph.

As a bonus, they share the same battery and external controls.

The perfect duo.

—Peter.
