The pandemic threw my life as a freelance photographer into turmoil. So I focused on the things I loved, which were hiking and landscape photography.

After seven years of shooting Canon, I purchased my first full-frame Sony camera: my Sony A7 III and the 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN FE.

This is a killer combo that's great for hiking and landscapes — even weddings, portraits and videos. If you’re looking for the perfect all-rounder that’s great in most situations, I can’t recommend this piece of kit enough.
