Miscellaneous

On all of my lenses (if appropriate) I use Hoya Pro-1D digital UV filters. I also use Cokin gradient filters (though at the moment I need to upgrade from the P series to one more suitable for the full frame camera).

I have a Giottos tripod and head and Manfrotto monopod (for the odd eccentric photograph), and a couple of gorillapods just in case.

I have a sigma flash unit, but this will hopefully soon be upgraded to one that I can control off camera.

I have a couple of Lowepro bags that I use depending on what I need to carry.

I use Lexar UDMA memory cards and card reader for storage. Most of the time when I am on a photographic trip I take my laptop which has 4GByte DDR3 RAM, 2x500GByte HDDs, a 1GByte Nvidia GFX card, 17.3” Display and CS4 to backup and process pictures. I also use a 1TByte external HDD to archive photos.
