The equipment I use to capture and create my photography. These are my personal recommendations based on real-world experience.
cameras
My newest addition and the "go-to" camera for travel and street photography. It's small enough to carry everywhere but still delivers full-frame image quality. The autofocus is fast and rarely misses - great for those quick street shots. Battery life gets me through a full day, and the in-body stabilization works well for handheld shooting. It's compact without feeling cheap or limited.

This is the camera that's always in my bag. The fixed 23mm lens keeps things simple - no zoom to worry about, just good composition. The hybrid viewfinder is clever - you can see the actual scene or switch to electronic for precise framing. Film simulations give photos that classic Fuji look straight out of camera, which it totally adore. No long Lightroom or Capture One sessions. Build quality feels solid, and the controls are exactly where you expect them. The lens is not the sharpest tho but in general it's perfect for street photography when you want to stay unnoticed.

Solid APS-C camera that handles more than you'd expect from its size. The real-time tracking autofocus grabs onto subjects and doesn't let go - works great for moving subjects. Image quality from the 24MP sensor is good with decent dynamic range. The tilting screen is handy for awkward angles and video work. Eye detection autofocus works well for portraits. It's small enough for travel but fast enough for action. Not bad for an APS-C body.
lenses
This lens stays on my camera most of the time. The 24-105mm range handles almost everything I shoot - landscapes, portraits, street photos. Sure, f/4 isn't as bright as f/2.8, but the image stabilization helps with slower shutter speeds. Image quality is solid throughout the zoom range, and it's lighter than the faster alternatives. Weather sealing works well - I've shot in rain and snow without issues. Not the most exciting lens, but it gets the job done.

Great lens for APS-C cameras. The f/2.8 aperture stays constant throughout the zoom, which helps in low light and gives nice background blur. The 17-70mm range covers most situations - wide enough for landscapes, long enough for portraits. Vibration compensation works well for handheld shots. Autofocus is quick and quiet. Build quality feels good, and the weather sealing gives me confidence in light rain. Pairs perfectly with smaller APS-C bodies for travel.
