You don’t need to load yourself down with gear to get great results

Mark used a Nikon Df to capture ‘Belle of the Ball’. An unusual choice, perhaps, for the world of landscape photography, which is dominated by the D800/D810 line. But he treats the camera almost like a point-and-shoot, citing its dynamic range and low noise as attractive features. “I like to remain fluid and mobile in changing lighting conditions and tend to keep my shutter speed high,” he reveals. “For this image I shot at f/5.6 with an ISO of 500, giving me a shutter speed of 1/1250 sec. I’ve no issue with shooting at either f/5.6 or ISO500. The noise floor on the Df is practically non-existent at that level.”
