The camera bag you used today, what was in it and a photo.

I'm always juggling gear around. I settle on a couple or a few lenses as regulars for a while then at some stage this fades into a new grouping, pluses and minuses in all directions of course.

I like to hear about what other people carry when heading out the door for photography. I like to think of myself as a minimalist, I believe I am in most areas of life - however I then hear of folks that own just an x100 and nothing else and realise that I'm probably far more middle of the road than I'd like in my everyday carry.

So: What did you carry TODAY. Ideally a photo of the bag and the contents arrayed around it. Any commentary regarding where you went and why you took what you did would be nice. And one of the resulting photo's from the day.

So if you threw your one and only fixed lens camera in an old plastic shopping bag or if you loaded up 20 kgs of gear into your custom made dedicated wheeled camera case and politely asked your caddy to join you for the day... bring it on.

I will of course get it underway:

The bag is a Peak Design 3L sling.

In it there is:

- x-pro3

- Voigtlander 21/3.5 modded to x-mount.

- SMC Pentax K30/2.8

- SMC Pentax K55/1.8

- PK to FX adaptor

- Filters, 10 stop ND, Diffusion, Polarizer.

- Ultra Pod tripod.

- Wired remote release.

- Spare Battery.

It was a windy and somewhat wild day today. I went to my local beach which faces the incoming weather. There was a fair amount of fine salt spray and some sand flying, even a couple of hundred meters from the water, so the gear was being cradled and babied a bit. Regardless, it all needed a wipe down when I got home.

The image I've chosen is a stitch of 4 from the Voigt 21. In retrospect I could have gone with just the body and this one lens, I did take some photo's with the other two lenses however they didn't produce anything much, none of the other stuff got touched. Of course it doesn't look it, however it was actually difficult to stand still when upright due to the wind so relaxed contemplation didn't really enter into the photographic equation.
