I’ve spent a lot of time shooting with the Nikon Z6 III alongside my Nikon Z8, and one of the biggest challenges when using two bodies regularly is keeping them set up in a way that feels consistent. If they behave differently, it quickly starts to interfere with muscle memory — which is the last … Read more
I rarely go anywhere without a camera. But every now and then, I don’t want to be “photographer dad.” I just want to get out of the house with Sofia, enjoy a walk, and make it clear — to both of us — that the time together matters more than taking photos. That’s exactly where … Read more
I took a walk along the River Earn today. I’ve been given information that certain stretches of the river have beavers along them, so I wanted to go down there myself, take a look at the area, check the flow of the river, look for any signs of activity, and scout potential shooting locations—particularly how … Read more

During my time in the Philippines I used the Z8 mainly for family, travel and documentary photography. But since moving to the Scottish … Read more
My Nikon Z 180–600mm lens arrived last week and, after much deliberation between OM System and Nikon for my wildlife photography setup here in Scotland, I finally got to take it out along with the Nikon Z8 and the 400mm f/4.5 lens on Friday. Both of these lenses are among the best lens options for … Read more
A lot has happened already in 2026. At the end of January, Sofia, my mum and I arrived in our new home in Perthshire, Scotland and, after getting over the initial jetlag, we’ve managed to settle in quickly. I had never been to this particular area before, so moving here was a bit of a … Read more

In this guide I’m going to give my straightforward advice on which Fujifilm lenses are actually worth spending your hard-earned … Read more
