One of the questions which all photography enthusiasts love to share and check with fellow photographers is the equipment and gear a photographer has and uses.  Now it must be said that there is no holy grail for photography, and one keeps always expanding and evolving in his equipment.  

Since the time I have started photography, I was intrigued by the Sony Mirrorless realm. Lighter then the equivalent DSLRs, I first purchased a Nex 5, then a Nex 6 and finally the a6000 before I upgraded to fullframe.  Its been quite a journey...

My current setup is as follows:

Bodies:

• 4x A9+ JB Hand Grip (review here)

• RX1R ii (review here) - for street photography

I cannot stress how much the JB handgrip improves the handling of the camera.  I have also tried a Meike vertical grip, however the JB grip is just better - lighter, takes less space and adds a vintage look to the camera!

Lenses

• Sel35f14

• Batis 85mm f1.8

• Sony 20mm f1.8

• Sel55z f1.8

• Sel1635z (I use this exclusively for landscape and travel work mostly)

• Sel35f18 (used for travel and as a backup 35mm lense!)

These are the main lenses I am currently using for my work at the moment.   For weddings I use an all prime lens approach, giving me the best possible sharpness, depth of field and sensitivity.

Lighting

I am currently using two Godox v860ii and a Godox V1s together with the X2T-S trigger controller which can wirelessly trigger them.  

Other

• Optech sholder strap

• Spiderholster Dual Camera system

• Holdfast Moneymaker leather strap

• Lowepro Flipside 300

• Multiple 128Gb SD Cards Sandisk Pro Extreme

I find this setup flawless for portraits and wedding photography and now with the A7riii the focus speed and accuracy is really upto DSLR standards.  The IQ is flawless and I have made a decision to use the two bodies both with prime lenses attached, giving me different views during a wedding or a shootout, mostly shooting in a wide open fashion.
