Gear

As a Freelance cameraman I depend on my gear, that is why I own the best equipment available. Everything listed here is equipment I own and carry with me at all times. Compare this with large production companies or crews who rent their gear. This list is just the highlights of equipment I have, there are too many other things to list.
