The camera and lens i am using are: Canon EOS 550d, an old 18mp DSLR & the Tamron SP VC 70-300mm f4-5.6
More about the camera, this camera is extremely old and is kind of terrible by today’s standards, but it works well enough for me. It has a video mode that can shoot at 1080p at 25 fps and a pretty solid amount of options in the menu.
More about the lens, honestly i am very happy with this lens, it zooms out to 300mm which, with the crop factor from my body, is equivalent to 480mm! It is a Tamron SP lens which stands for super performance, it is pretty sharp and it has a very effective VC aka vibration compensation, which reduces the shake from shooting handheld.
Before i have made a post talking about my gear i use to take pictures with my phone. Now however i have gotten myself a bit of an upgrade. This is the gear i use for my PixOfTheMonth. The 550d is discontinued but u can buy the 300mm lens hear.
