Thought I would create a page with a list of my camera equipment and software that I use for my Photography. I do not have top of the line, but I have managed through the years to upgrade to what I consider “very nice” collection of lenses ~ camera ~ software that allow me to produce photos that I love. Sure it would be nice to own all the latest and greatest mega lenses, not to mention mega pixel cameras. I’m sure that if money wasn’t an issue that I would OWN IT ALL BABY! And HEY, I am not a professional, don’t claim to be one, my wallet proves that I am not one! Hoping to add the Canon 50mm 1.4 to my collection soon. 
My camera is the Canon 40D. Upgrading to this camera from the rebel series was one of the best choices I ever made. I’ve been very happy with this camera and have not had the “new camera bug” since I bought it.
My lens collection:
- Canon 70-200 F4 L
- Sigma 30 F 1.4
- Sigma 150mm MACRO F 2.8
- Sigma 17-70 F 2.8
- Lensbaby 3-G ~ macro kit, wide angel converter, closeup converter
- Canon 430ex flash
- Tiffen ND .9 filter (a must have)
Software and other Goodies must have:
- Photoshop CS3
- Tiffen DFx
- Photomatix HDR
- Lightroom (rarely used)
- Florabella Textures and Actions
- Pattie Brown – Kalidescope
- MCP Actions
- Pioneer Woman (free)
- Free Textures found on Flickr
I have a few books on photoshop that has been a lifesaver for me. I have learned most of my photoshop by searching the web, asking friends and attending the Nashville Photography Meetups once a month.
FYI: Youtube is awesome for tutorials.
