  Monet S. asked:

  Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could offer me some advice. I'm an equine photographer, and thinking about getting a better camera. What would be the best camera for me (I prefer Canon, but other suggestions are welcome) and which lenses would be better? I need something that is perfect for sport as well as portraits, and I can't have fragile since dust and horrible extreme weather is part of the equine world. And a camera that overheats is completely out of the question - I stand in the scorching sun for up to 8 hours and take photo's non stop. I also have to be able to take about 30 shots in 50 seconds with horses that jumps with super speed between 1 and 10 meters away from me, and I have to have a lense that does not require changing for those jumps. Currently I have a Canon EOS1100D (since 2008) with 75mm lense and 55-300mm, which I always had to change every 30 seconds, which is why I require advice on a general lense that would be better. It's a great camera since it has never broken down or overheated and has survived the worst weather. Thanks in advance!

  You might want to investigate the Oympus Mirrorless range, they are compact can take any lens, with an adaptor and are virtually weather proof. Speak to Ian Fleming, not the author, from Knysna. Warren and Ian use them exclusively and can give you a very good insight. www.ianflemingphotography.com
