I often get asked what gear I carry and I'm afraid there is not really one answer. I actually carry multiple bags configured differently for different things. This week with snow having made chaos of my plans I'll show off a few things -
The basic zoom bag
Nikon D3s camera
Nikon D700 camera
Nikon 17-35 2.8 lens
Nikon 28-70 2.8 lens
Nikon 80-200 2.8 lens
Nikon 105 2.8 Macro
a couple of sb800 remote flash units and a battery pack for them
extra cards and batteries.
This is the ready for whatever kit. Big and heavy but all the bases are covered and there is a bit of redundancy in case I have problems with any one item. The fast Nikon zooms are sharp enough and the 105 is just a really nice piece of glass that lets me work close. With the zooms I do not have to change lenses so often which helps keep dust out of the camera body (a big issue for me)
What's missing?
I really need to replace the older zoom lenses with the newer 24-70 2.8 and the 70-200 2.8 and I would be able to get by with just those two instead of the current 3 zooms for most things.
