For my photo shoots I used my own camera which is a Pentax K-x. This camera is pretty good but also quite standard and possibly not the best camera to use for my type of project photos. Also my flask gun is just an on/off one, I had no control of the exposure which would have really helped, particulary for the goat shoot. I changed my settings for the correct aperture and shutter speed but the camera would have had of been on the manual setting but this would not work because as the shoots were being done in low light I needed automatic focus which then limited the ability to get correct exposure.
A better, more suitable camera to use for my photo shoots would have been the Canon EOS 1D X. For my grave shoot, when trying to photograph the models running, this camera would have been ideal because it captures every second up to 12 frames per second continuous shooting which can increase to 14fps in 'Super High' speed mode. Also having the Canon Speedlite 430 EX II flashgun would have been perfect for both shoots because it is made for the EOS cameras and manual mode settings in 1/3 stop increments with settings that can be controlled though the camera menu system.
