Well,
Jack "dared" me to post an image of my equipment. I had never seen it laid out side by side like this. Some of this equipment has been with me for over 10 years, other stuff is newer. Some of it sees near-daily use, other stuff I just happen to need twice a year. I rarely purchase something new unless it really expands my "photography envelope" or is a giant step-up in image quality.
I'll go over the bits and pieces and try to explain what I use them for.
I'm sure I've forgotten some minor bits and pieces (polarizers, wired remotes, battery chargers etc.) but, in general, this is my kit.
