Sony A7iii Camera
Full Frame Mirrorless Camera
This is my first ever Full-frame camera. I love the development Sony is showing in the world of cameras. When they first launched their latest advances in cameras, they were short on the number of lenses that would work but since then they have produced some amazing lenses and third party companies like Samyang and Sigma have also produced some amazing lenses for the Sony E-mount cameras.

Sony Zeiss 55 Lens
Full Frame F1.8 Zeiss Auto Focus (SEL55F18Z)
My favourite of all my lenses. This was the first Prime lens I bought and that is when I fell in love with this lens. It has a lovely wide aperture which gives portrait photographs the most amazing feel to them. The subject is alway super sharp. It is a small lens so carrying it for street photography is also very convenient.

Laowa 15mm Zero-D Lens
Full Frame E-Mount F2.0 Manual Focus Zero Distortion
The Venus Laowa 15mm F2 Zero-D Lens is specifically designed for Sony full frame sensor E (FE) mount cameras, such as the A7 series. This allows E mount users to take impressive ultra wide angle pictures by using the 110 degree angle of view. Ultra-fast f/2 aperture will also be embraced by everyone especially the Astro and landscape photographers. Relatively compact and lightweight lens housing superior optics. I like this lens because a standard ND and CPL filter can be put on the threaded front, there is no bulbous lens like most wide angles this wide.

The Rode Wireless GO 2
Dual-Channel Compact Wireless Lavalier Sound System
After owning the Wireless Go original version and loving it so much, I have decided to upgrade to the latest version, the Rode Wireless Go 2. This is essentially the same product with more features.
The largest difference is that the Wireless Go 2 comes with dual-channel, so it is not only great for vlogging now, but also great for interviewing too. Other differences are the ability to record onto the mic directly, better quality and more control. It also has far better distance capabilities.
It is only £90,00 more than the original but you are getting an additional unit, so in my opinion, well worth it.
