My Cameras

A few readers have asked me what type of camera I use.

I have a Canon digital SLR 450 D which I love. I'd love to step up to a 70D or 7D, but the type of books I write/photograph mean wearing a camera all day and the 450D is lighter. For shooting images for my last three books I got a Canon 18mm - 200mm lens which means I can take a photo of an historic building or a close-up of an insect without having to change lenses. I also have a Canon Ixus 70 point and shoot which is still going strong after many years of service. I always carry it in my bag or pocket because it's light, tiny, takes great macro shots, and despite being very old, still takes a better photo than my much newer phone camera. I'm waiting for a camera manufacturer to produce a fantastic camera which also makes phone calls.
