So, what's essential equipment to be carting around these days? I'm all with the idea a single good lens is all you need.

I found it on a thingy that gets images from LJ. Well, somebody else did and I pasta'd it.

Is it some famous dude's bag?

TSA broke up the latch to the back of my camera. I carry tape to keep it shut so the film doesn't expose. it works wonders-- for that and other things, too.

Lens Pen, fuck yeah!

Which one? I don't have any plastic lenses
>> Liska !!LIVFOETqL8j
>>86051

OH! you mean the little one? It's my 28-80 kit lens that came with my camera. It also doubles as my macro- works like a charm and quite well, too ;)
>> Macheath !8b4g0BkNZg
>>86062
Tamron?

I think I have the same lens (I guess that's why the plastic mount caught my eye)... I think it works great in daylight but I'm hoping to move up to a better lens with a faster aperture. Still, for the price ($50 i think) it's not a bad lens.

Just an extra 50mm f1.8 lens, my sb400 flash, spare memory card, spare camera & flash batteries. Everything but the flash fits in the same camera bag I bought with the camera.

It's a Sigma kit lens. I swear, best lens ever! I can't find a picture of it on google anywhere, though. :/

In my bag today for today's trip:

Canon EF 70-200mm 2.8L IS
Canon EF 24-70mm 2.8L

Wait, it's Sigma? I could've sworn it was Nikon.
>> Liska !!LIVFOETqL8j
>>86155

it's Sigma. Remember I told you what it was, but could never find an image? It's a Sigma 28-80 with a macro switch/mode on it and it's AWESOME!
>> elf_man !fBgo7jDjms
>>86156
Hell, that explains it. That would've made it a lot easier, I was looking through old Nikon lenses.

It's actually an S1 and it's got a fucked up sensor or something so all the picks come out out crazy from it. It's fun sometimes.

Really though, what I usually take out with me is:

20D
28-70 f/2.8L
17-35 f/2.8-4
30 f/1.4
50 f/1.4
70-210 f/3.5-4.5
>> Jeremo !iKGMr61IHM

yeah i rmember a few years back most of Terry Richardson and Steve Meisels' photo were all done with disposables.

they still had excellent studio lighting which brought out the best in the cameras though

Nice. It's a shame I'm so bad at photography when I'm drunk, really. That's pretty much the only reason why I ever sober up.
