What it was shot on.

Every dated frame record in the book names its body, lens and settings. Grouped by year, they are the honest gear story: three Pentax bodies across a decade, a handful of wide lenses, and a phone in 2026. No specifications are quoted here — only what the records say.

Body by body — with the frames the file itself confirms

Records: the book's caption records (InDesign) and the book spots' EXIF.
