Albert Dros: Do you REALLY need the newest gear to take great photos?

You probably already know the answer to the title of this article. But there is so much more to it that I want to talk about. Throughout my photography journey I have used many pieces of gear: both cameras and lenses. And especially the last 7 years or so, I have been fortunate to use mostly the newest Sony cameras and lenses as a Sony ambassador. But this has not always been the case. And I have taken some of my ‘best’ photos with older cameras and lenses. In this article, I want to take you back to where I came from and my journey through gear, and my current thoughts about using the newest gear for my photos.
