Nikon Z 6

“The Nikon Z 6 is the best camera for night photography. The more I have used it, the more I like it. The Z 6 separates itself from other great night photography cameras by getting 1 to 2 stops better with cleaner ISOs. That is game-changing camera night photography. It means I can pretty much shoot in any dark sky condition, even with an f/4 lens, and come away with excellent image quality.”

Phottix Aion Universal Wireless Timer and Shutter Release

“Most night photographers struggle with the most basic requirement to make long exposures: an intervalometer. I believe I’ve found the solution: the Phottix Aion. After much testing and firsthand experience with many, many manufacturers’ intervalometers—both in my own photography and by playing with what people bring to workshops—I affirm that the Phottix Aion is the best intervalometer you can buy. ”

BenQ SW240 24.1" 16:10 PhotoVue IPS Monitor

“99 percent Adobe RGB color gamut. It takes a profile really well. I know I’m seeing as much as possible in the file. Plus, I really dig two other features: the ability to swivel to vertical any time, and the two USB ports and SD card reader built into the side.”

Acratech GPSS Ball Head

“The GPSS is the perfect match for your traveler style tripod. Made with the same durability as the GP, it has a smaller base so that when you invert your 180 legs they can wrap around the head. Invest in the lever clamp model—it is the ultimate in ensuring your camera remains locked into the ball head.”
