The kit.

Fifteen years of documentary and news work decides what stays in the bag. Bought with my own money, chosen because it survives the work. Field reports on gear brands send me to test are further down the page.

What I can cover

Most of this kit rents out when it is not on a job, through ShareGrid ↗

Field demos

Gear that turned up to be tested, used on real jobs, and written up afterwards. Newest first.

Gear sent to me free or on loan is labelled on its own card. Some links are affiliate links and I may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. I use the thing on real work and write what happened either way.

No field reports published yet. The first ones are being written up. The kit above is what they get compared against.

Send gear to test. It goes out on real documentary work and I write and publish reviews here. Get in touch.
