THE EQUIPMENT
Canon has simply the best Digital SLR out on the market capable of 8fps for 22 frames and is capable of 8.2 million pixels & up. I carry 5 x 1GB Lexar MicroDrive's and 5 x 1GB Compact flash cards around with me.
This gives me a very large shooting capacity in JPEG format, and quite an impressive capability in RAW format. These cameras and lenses create superb photos when printed up to 11.7x16.5" (A3) and are great for magazine and newspaper photos. This gives me an awesome setup!
Having used the EOS-1Ds II and the Eos 30D, digital gives me fast & effective results compared to 35mm. I usually have my EF 70-200/2.8L coupled with the EOS- 30D and a wide angle lens (Canon & Sigma) at my side ready for those creative & unique angles.
Along with digital, for assignment and historical purposes I also shoot in 35mm (Canon EOS 3) and use medium format (Mamiya RB67 and my trusty solid Pentax 645) for those special large artistic projects. Medium format cameras produce some stunning photos both with the use of B&W and slide film.
