During the week, I use a Domke bag with Canon 1D or 1DII, 16-35 f/2.8, 24-105 f/4, 50 f/1.8, 70-200 f/2.8 IS, one or two flashes, three camera batteries, AA's for the flashes, cords, graduated filters, extra CF cards, markers, etc. + I have to haul lighting kits, stands, and a tripod. Digital is my work medium. When I want to have fun in photography it's got to be film. I participated in a three hour photo shoot-out last weekend. I think everyone else was shooting digital: I used my 4x5 Graflex, 120 roll adapter + Verito lens, and my Olympus OM-2n with "Velmar" 135 soft focus lens. I had a ball. I feel the same as Doug Nygren: >Mon, 17 Sep 2007 07:10:05 -0400 >I don't like looking at computer screens and prefer the darkroom.
