The "what's in your camera bag?" thread

[buzzlightweight]

I need to clean my bag as I spilled tea on it. I won't say what the sweetener in tea looks like on a black bag when it dries

Anyway, I've got a few bags which I can't remember the name of other than the shoulder bag I currently use, which is the Lowpro event messenger 150 http://www.lowepro.com/eventmessenger - annoyingly it's not quite big enough, and the version above it seems to be bigger in the wrong way, oddly.

Gear wise, (dunno why, I don't like posting what gear I have much, but hey ho):

5dmk3
battery grip
x2 canon batteries (need to buy two more. Totally forgot about that)
32gb & 16gb sandisk 30mb/s extreme cards (seem fine so I use 'em )
Canon 100L
Canon 85L
Canon 35L
Canon 70-200 F4L (non IS)
Sigma 12-24
Sigma 50 1.4

Canon 600EX flash doobry ferkin

Lee big stopper and mount gubbins
The usual lens pens, fibre cloths, etc.

Other stuff on long term loan to my sister and dad:

Canon 300D
Canon 30D
Canon 60D

Sigma 70-300
Canon nifty fifty
Sigma 105 (non OS)
The old Canon kit lens 18-50 is it? I can't remember!

There's other bits n bobs, but I'm going to bed as I'm shattered and can't be bothered digging through my bags I can't be bothered mentioning the tripod as it's poop. I never get around to replacing it, although I've got the stuff MrK has bought recently in my payday folder, so may get that sorted before the year is out

Pics?

How comes the 35L and not the Sigma?

That's the only one I've got of the camera and two lenses I bought with it

While I was having a pint inbetween photos

http://instagram.com/p/Z_AeakLNN4/ <-- the flash

http://instagram.com/p/Nj3X7krNMd/ <-- 70-200 F4 and x2 Kenko extender (forgot about this!)

http://instagram.com/p/HBbR3/ <-- 30D and 60D

Like I say, I don't normally like sitting around taking photos of all my gear. The only ones I have are from when I'm bored doing something else

Also, I bought the 35L over the Sigma as the reviews were, and still are mixed over that lens. So much so, despite some saying it's sharper, I opted just to stick with Canon lenses for the 5dmk3. I bought them all together from the same retailer, at the same time. I'd have also had to buy the Sigma from a separate retailer, which I didn't want to do.

Just looked through the gear thread and didn't realise it's already been 9 months since I bought it. Just over 2800 photos taken so far

Someone wants more pictures of bags?

All my gear lives in my tiny beat up Tamrac Adventure 6 backpack, crap colour I know but it was a second hand bargain and has served me well.

Inside the bottom half it looks like this, what you can't see are the 50mm f1.4 and 35mm f2 tucked away under the cameras hand grip.

So if I take everything out of the bottome of the bag you have this little lot

Then finally if I empty the top you have this to add to the collection

Quick Kit list for anyone interested
5D mkii
Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 - Great sharp lens but thinking it will be swapped for a 24-105mm f4 L the primes cover the low light stuff and I'd rather have the range
Canon 70-210mm f4 - Cracking lens for £75 better value than the nifty fifty I used to have
Canon 35mm f2 - Would love to replace this with a USM/HSM version but they are all so expensive/big!
Canon 50mm f1.4
Canon 85mm f1.8
Sigma Flash
Gorrilla pod memory cards cables filters etc etc etc

Very rarely does it leave the house with all that lot in I'll tend to pick a lens or two and leave the rest at home I prefer to travel light(ish!) not as brave as Ray though!
