What’s in Henry’s Bag
Whenever I tell someone I am a photographer, one of the first questions is, “what kind of camera do you use” and then asking about what else do I use. Well here it is, every piece of photographic equipment I own. Yeh its a lot of gear, but over the course of 25 years which each shoot I do I’m always thinking what were my limitations if any and is there something that will make my life easier.
Sometimes, a new company will reinvent wheel so to speak and come up with something that makes my life easier in the field. Two companies that come in mind are Lastolite and Thinktank. I’ll talk more about those in a later blog.
I certainly don’t use all this gear for every shoot. Each shoot has its own unique requirements and I gear up for each one appropriately. If your interested in purchasing these items, each is linked to Adorama, which I have been using for a long time.
