With his Mirrorless System of Nikon cameras and a range of lenses from wide-angle to 400-500mm telephotos along with protectiv gear and outdoorwear he is all in. His Office is just next to the Ski slope which he mentioned to us has its benefits but also disadvantages. You are always right in the middle of everything. But it's not just about having the right gear; it's about knowing how to pack it.
