"Are there any other print journalists on the LUG who have to take their own
pics? If so, own up guys - what kit do you carry?" - Doug


Yeah, I do freelance work for magazines.  Doug's right.  Unless you work for
National Geographic or the like, you're often called upon to provide your
own pics.

I use my much-beloved M3 and (sorry, lads) the classic photojournalist's
"brick", a black Nikon F2.  I'd love to augment the M3 with an M2 or M4 to
give me some wide-angle rangefinder coverage, but...well...Doug knows how
much writing pays (!).
