Default My latest essential camera bag item

Living in New Zealand and particularly a major dairy farming area my photo trips take me accross farm land a lot.

My latest must have in my bag is an Electric Fence Tester!

Boy these fences can hurt if they are powered up, and even if there is no stock in the feilds either side it often will still be live.

I call MY electric fence tester Mat. That's the name his parents gave him.

Never grab the wire, brush it with the back of your hand. That way when your muscles contract you pull away, not grab tight.
