I’m a vagabond, so my images focus mainly on landscapes and nature.

My Equipment
- Sony A7 mirrorless camera, usually with either a 35mm or 55mm prime lens
- Sony HX-80 point-and-shoot camera. This is good for quick shots out the car window or when hiking in damp weather since it easily fits into a pocket.
- My backup cameras are a Sony A6000 (current fave lens is a 20mm prime for wide shots of landscapes) and a Leica D-Lux (fixed zoom lens).
My advice when looking for a camera? tl;dr: Try before you buy.
Find a good camera store or go to a place like Best Buy and try them out. See what sizes fit your hands (too big or too heavy, and you won’t use it as much) and what menu system fits your brain. For example, Canon’s menu system confuses me, but for some reason, Sony’s menu system makes sense to me; you might find the reverse is try.
