Canon vs Nikon…

Canon versus Nikon: It’s an old argument, kind of like the Ford versus Chevy debate. There are guys who love Canon, and there are guys who love Nikon. The question is, I guess, which one is best for motorcycle travel?

I’m a Nikon guy, and on our ride across China, Gresh and I got into a discussion about this. Well, it was more like a lecture…something along the lines of “real pros use Canon,” if I remember Arjiu’s comments correctly (Arjiu is the name the Chinese gave Gresh, but that’s a story for another time).

So I thought I’d open the discussion by asking good buddy Joe Gresh to tell me a bit more about his preferences in photo gear. But first, I want to share two quick photos with you. The first is from the Gentry Autry Museum in Los Angeles, and the second is from the Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar.

We’ll be posting blogs on both destinations (the Autry and Nethercutt Museums) in the near future, but for now, let’s get back to the question du jour: What’s your photo gear preference and why? I’m asking my buddy Joe here, but we don’t want to limit the conversation to just the two of us. Do you have a photo gear preference? Better yet, do you have a photo from one of your moto trips you’d like to share? Hey, send your inputs to info@exhaustnotes.us, or post your comments directly on the ExhaustNotes blog!
