The Mavic 3 Pro is the best drone I've flown. Three cameras, stupid long battery life, and it makes aerial shots look like they came from a helicopter.
The RX100 is the camera I grab when I need something that fits in my pocket but still shoots proper video. It punches so far above its size it's almost unfair to other compact cameras.
The Canon R5 is what I reach for when I need the best possible image. 8K raw, incredible autofocus, and IBIS that makes handheld look like you're on a gimbal. It's expensive but it's worth it.
Rode Wireless GO — I've been using these for years. Small enough to hide anywhere, great sound quality, and that on-board backup recording has saved me more times than I can count.
The MKE 600 is a serious shotgun mic. When I need clean, directional audio on location and I can't do a lav setup, this is what I grab.
The GorillaPod is the travel tripod. Wraps around anything, fits in your pocket, locks solid. I've had the same one for five years.
