Some of the contents include the camera - of course - with 18-55mm lens; 70-300mm lens; gripper tripod; shutter release remote; shutter release cord; wet weather protector for camera; head torch; mini maglite; gray card; pen and paper; reading glasses;4 foot of velcro straps to secure camera if necessary; mobile phone; extra batteries; extra memory cards; penknife and some change for the phone and coffee machine

Well since I just got a camera, all I have is my orange school backpack from a few years ago and my single camera.

Love your shot Big Lu, look forward to seeing lots more. I'm going to have to think of something creative for this one.

Hello everyone,

My camera's bag.
Because I only have one camera, for this assignment I had to work for the camera instead of the camera working for me.
So, basically this is the camera's bag, and as so, the camera takes its own "portrait" inside its own bag, while I held a mirror in front of it.

Here's my attempt. I lined up my two lenses(50mm 1.8 - front, 55-250 - back) with my camera bag - a lowpro nova 1 and shot it with my remaining lens and camera(Sigma 18-50EX Macro and Canon 350D). Getting the lenses lined up right with the bag in focus was a lot less fun than taking the shot . Hope you guys enjoy.



Shot at 50mm, ISO 400, 1/4sec, f/4
