    Wow! Even with just a phone, you made it look awesome. It's not really about the equipment, it's the one handling the equipment that really matters. After being subscribed for months, I finally ventured into toy photography, and I'm just using my phone and mobile apps for editing. You were one of the few who really inspired me to toy photography, but I really look out for your IG post & YT vids because I know, I'm gonna learn something from it. If I can't do what you did in a post, then I just try my best copying the idea and applying my own. Although I'm not really close to being 5% as good as you, but I share your passion and desire in bringing our toys to life and having fun doing it. I'll share this to my IG, I'm sure there are lots of us (noob toy photographers) out there, some were just like me, shy and afraid that our work might get ridiculed. Thank you!

    Hi , I hope this finds you doing well. I was wondering if you could make a video about using a DSLR camera with toy photography? Focusing more on the camera itself. (no pun intended)lol. Like what are the best lenses to use, lighting and shutter speed or how far away the camera should be from the subject. Also it would be cool if you could do more behind the scene's videos from setup to final picture. Thanks man keep the videos coming!
