The gear I use to make my content (although this is always changing!)

Sony A7iv + 20mm 1.8G - My main YouTube camera for shooting out on location. 
Canon EOS R8 + 16mm F2.8 + Zhuyin Crane M3 - I use this for a combination of stills and video B-roll
DJI Pocket 3 - Used for videos where I cover a lot of ground
Sony A7iii - this is my primary stills camera that works with native Sony lenses and all my Canon EF lenses on the Sigma MC-11 adaptor
Canon 5D3 - I use this camera when I use my EF glass and there is no benefit in adapting
DJI Mavic Pro 2 - My first drone, and I can’t see me replacing it. It’s amazing for both stills and video 
Go Pro Hero 8 - for adverse weather conditions that my other cameras might not survive!
Insta360  - X3 & One inch edition - for 360 degree video and BTS content
