My Camera Gear - Daniel M Kainz - Nature & Wildlife Photography

My photo and film equipment used on all my journeys.

MY camera GEAR

It all began with an old Nikon D50 camera from my aunt. With it came some lenses and a bag, my first camera gear. After more than ten years, some ten thousand pictures and endless testing later, I am happy with my photography gear. Since that moment, I stayed with Nikon and never had any doubt of changing.

After years of over-water photography, I started scuba diving. Because I was born in Austria, mountain lakes were my playground. The crystal clear but freezing water inspired me to take my photography skills to the next level. I bought a beginner compact camera and a convenient waterproof housing and some suitable lights. Soon this type of photography caught me the most, so now I am trying to it everywhere I travel.

During my Business Informatics studies, I began to work in the film industry. I started to shoot my first short films and nature videos. Now my full-time job is working as a 1.AC in TV commercials. I decided to combine my passion for nature and wildlife with my filmmaking skills. My dream job would be a wildlife filmmaker!
