I wrestle with this question all the time. I've tried carrying just a cell phone, go pros, a dslr with a wide range zoom (18-135mm), a dslr with big fast glass (18-35/1.8 and 70-200/2.8) and I think I have finally hit on the best balance with what I took with me to Nebraska last month in the...
Tamron G2 70-200mm/2.8 on a Canon 80D. Plus some noise reduction in Lightroom. I really want to upgrade to a EOS R5 but I can't stomach the $6k it'd cost me in body, adapter and lens costs to do it right now.
Kaizen foam is pretty affordable and very durable. I have it in my 1750. The full size sheet is a couple inches short of the internal length of the case but that leaves a little room to stuff in a sling, bipod and some other small items without having to cut out specific slots for them. Used it...

Not really. Photography, and food photography (and cooking) in particular has been a hobby for ~15 years so I get a few decent shots now and then. Everything there I cooked, aside from the two cakes myself wife baked. Varying levels of effort went into the plating and photos which should be...

For Canon EF mount bodies around or under $1k I'd probably be looking at the 90D or RP with RF->EF adapter. The F4 on a crop sensor 90D might be a little rough on low light (for wider angle shots I am a huge fan of the Sigma 18-35 1.8) but the RP is a full frame so it won't be quite as bad. The...
