Essentially, i thought i'd create this topic, to see what the spotters of this site used, to photograph the amazing beasts that make this site possible. Put simply, what camera do you use, and what equipment do you have with it?

For me, i use a Canon EOS 1100D/T3, and have been using it for the best part of nearly 1 1/2 years. As well as the Kit 18-55mm lens, i also have the 50mm F1.8 II lens, which is a fantastic lens. Creates some cracking Depth of Field, and great overall Low Light performance (Thanks to a wide aperture of course).

The kit lens has a set of Camlink filters (UV and CPL), but i am investing in a 52mm diameter CPL for the 50mm lens. I also use a Velbon DF-40 tripod, pretty good at it's job and some other little nifty accessories that make photographing things, just that little more interesting.

So, what do you guys have??? :D

I use a Canon Rebel T3. The lenses I have are the 18-55mm, 55-250mm, and the 50mm 1.8 II.
I have a 58mm Hoya polarizer and a 58mm Vivitar polarizer.

i have a moterola atrix cellphone with a 6mp or 8mp camera, and full 1080 hd video

Nikon D3100 with standard 18-55mm VR lens. Have also attached a polarizing filter. Gets my pics looking pretty good :D
