Normally I am a firm believer that the equipment is not that important in creating the image, some of my best images were created with my first DSLR, a Canon EOS 300D with a cheap kit lens!
Having said that better equipment does help with a better "keep rate" and it also helps when conditions are not perfect.
Below is a list of my equipment, constantly changing so always out of date! Quite a few of the older models are in perfectly working order but retired from active "production". Quite a few older bodies and lenses have been donated to deserving youngsters over the years, the list below is what is still on the shelve.
