Do a search on Flickr for “What’s in your bag?” and you’ll stumble upon thousands of photos of meticulously arranged junk. Looks like there’s a movement to photograph emptied out bags to show what people drag around with them all day.
After every shoot, I empty out my Lowepro Roller 1, gather all the batteries for recharging, check lenses and cameras for damage, and make sure I didn’t lose anything. I was really bored today, so I decided to take one of those fancy gear photos. Turns out, my stuff makes a perfect square.
Here’s what’s in my main bag:
- Nikon D700 with battery grip
- Nikon D90 (back-up)
- Nikon F-100 (I still shoot film)
- SB-800 strobe
- SB-900 strobe
- SD9 battery pack
- Nikkor 70–200mm f/2.8 VRII
- Nikkor 24–70mm f/2.8
- Nikkor 50mm f/1.8
- Tamron 90mm f/2.8 macro
- Lomo LC+A
- Canon HF-200 camcorder
- Sekonic light meter
- flash to camera cord
- random defusers, memory cards, wires, and light hoods
Everything fits snug as a rug in my roller suitcase (one of the best purchases I ever made). This is my basic event and wedding rig that comes with me whenever I have a long shoot. If I ever get around to it, I’ll post my smaller bags for concerts and short events, and maybe my lighting gear if I’m feeling particularly frisky.
