CAMERA

I work exclusively with top-of-the-range cameras to sublimate the shot, the exposure and the constraints linked to a session (low light, contrasts, movements, etc.). I use two cameras: the LEICA SL2-S + LEICA Vario-Elmarit-SL 24-70 f/2.8 ASPH + Summilux 50mm f1.4 kit and the LEICA Q Summilux 28mm f1.7 ASPH.

These two digital cameras are complementary: the Leica Q makes it possible to carry out photo-reportage in complete discretion coupled with an ultra-bright 28mm fixed focal length. The SL2-S kit provides a slight zoom when conditions require it and will enhance portraits/packshots thanks to its f/2.8 aperture whatever the focal length used! A stabilized 4K video format is also possible for HD editing. These devices offer incomparable color reproduction even in very difficult situations.
