- Canon Lenses
- EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM - Really cool extreme wild angle all the way complete round image.
- EF 70-200mm f/4L IS II USM - Great zoom lens for everyday use.
- EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II USM - One of my favorite lenses. I find I use this lens the most - great range for most photography.
- EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM - Incredible clear pictures great for portraits as well. Super clear lens.
- Kolari Vision Infrared, UV Filters and camera conversion - Requires converted camera to full spectrum
- Kolari Vision IR Chrome Lens Filter - This Infrared + Visible lens filter - Beautiful reds and blues.
- Kolari Pro Gen 3 Infrared Lens Filter - Infrared Filters for Full Spectrum camera - 550, 590, 720nm are my favorite. Great for black and white or art photography. Above 590 is really more for BW photography. I personally like the 550 and 590 the best. You lose F stops with these some as you move up in nm you need to use a tripod and long exposure times.
- LENSBABY - Art Lenses - Portland Company - nice people I went down town and met them.
- Velvet 85 - My favorite Lens by them. Can add a eerie glow to pictures
