Primes feature large inA my’s kit
These camera and lens setups help our pro to get her sublime shots
Nikon D850
The D850’s weathersealed body enables Amy to keep shooting whatever the weather. “This is my primary camera, and a go-to combination with a 35mm lens attached.”
Nikon D5
“I’ve only just moved to the D5 this year.” The 153-point AF system on this full-frame DSLR provides Amy with wide coverage and precise focusing, for both moving vehicles and stationary ones.
Nikkor 35mm f/1.4 lens
This lens is mounted to Amy’s D850. The 35mm focal length provides a natural angle of view, similar to the perception of the human eye.
Nikkor 85mm f/1.4 lens
“Attached to my D5, this is perfect for capturing those moments that are just that little bit further away from me.”
Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 lens
“This was my first proper lens after a kit lens. Once I got it, I shot everything with it because I loved the ‘blurry’ background from the f/1.8 setting.” Amy still switches to this lens regularly.
Hold Fast MoneyMaker multi-camera sling
The stylish leather MoneyMaker that Amy wears means that she can secure her two cameras where they’re accessible and comfortable – on her shoulders. It’s weather-resistant, too. There’s a Solo edition for use with just one camera.
Polarising filters
Amy uses circular polarising filters to get rid of windscreen reflections in cars, and has one for each prime lens.
