The rest of this website shows results. This is about the tools behind them – and what I use them for.
My working tools for photo and film: two full-frame cameras with reliable autofocus and plenty of reserve in the highlights and shadows. That helps with interiors with bright windows just as much as with animals in motion.
Sheet 1 / 2
The newer of the two: a partially stacked full-frame sensor with around 33 megapixels, 4K video up to 120 frames per second (Super 35, up to 60 in full frame) and in-body stabilisation.
Sheet 2 / 2
Most of the images on this website were taken with it – the shooting data is shown in each enlarged view.
14 mmHorizontal angle of view 104°
Horizontal angles of view on full frame, rounded. The wider the angle, the more space fits into the picture – and the more important a clean perspective becomes.
Calm, controlled camera movements – for property films, reels and product videos.
3-axis gimbalAction, POV and unusual perspectives – where a large camera has no room.
4K · waterproofFlexible audio recording for selected video projects.
Wireless microphoneExposure brackets, long exposures and steady video shots.
Interiors · nightFewer reflections on glass and water, more depth in the sky.
Glass · water · skyLess light on the sensor: long exposures by day and filming with an open aperture even in the sun.

Always with meSafe transport and clean lenses – unspectacular, but visible in the result.
—Manual exposure, indoors with exposure brackets for windows and shadows.
Only the strongest shots move on – for private shoots via your selection gallery.
Lightroom Classic: exposure, colour, perspective, HDR merging and panorama.
Local masks, object removal, denoising and Super Resolution when needed.
JPEG in the sRGB colour space, PNG when needed – tailored to web, social media and common print uses.
Films are made in Final Cut Pro: editing, music, sound design and colour grading. Delivery is as MP4 in the agreed formats.
RAW files are raw material, not a finished image. That is why only fully edited files are delivered.
The setup grows with the projects. Technology is a tool – what matters is what it creates.
