Some of your favorite outdoor images are captured in autumn when nature’s colors are showing off, enhanced with fog, frost, and golden light. To achieve stunning photographs, you need affordable quality camera gear for your autumn shoots. In this video lesson, Outdoor Photography Guide’s professional photographer Paul Thomson takes you to a local woodland in his native England and offers you valuable tips on how to achieve memorable images. Paul suggests buying your camera equipment from used camera specialist MPB Gear to save money.

For his fall photography, Paul starts with the mirrorless Fuji XT1 camera and a 16mm-50mm lens he purchased from MPB Gear. MPB Gear offers top quality used equipment that is accessible and affordable. The Fuji XT1 is lightweight and versatile. You can easily carry it through wooded trails and over hills. You can capture close-ups of leaves, lichens, mosses or scenic landscapes.

If you want to upgrade, you can pack up the Fuji XT1 and send it to MPB Gear who will give you a quote, and you can upgrade to higher quality cameras on the MPB Gear website. Paul upgraded to the Sony A7R2 paired with two lenses, the 16mm-35m zoom and the 70-200mm zoom. He shows you images he captured with these two lenses. You need to evaluate the pros and cons of each camera system, which you can do by investigating the wide variety of equipment on the MPB Gear website, www.mpb.com

In this video lesson, Outdoor Photography Guide’s professional photographer Paul Thomson shows you the advantages of purchasing quality used gear from MPB Gear. With a wide selection, MPB Gear can transform the way you buy, sell and trade in your photo equipment. Transactions are handled through an online platform. MPB Gear is also committed to helping you participate in a more sustainable future.

    I have purchased used gear from a variety of sources including KEH, B&H, Adorama, EBAY, Hunt Photo, Kauffman Camera and MPB. The only one who disappointed me by over rating the quality was MPB. I do not recommend them at all.
