Camera Case – Unloaded


Image by fensterbme
I get a decent number of questions asking me what I shoot with, do I use X or Y or whatever… so to make it easier I recently just took a photo of what’s in my camera case, and then dumped it out so folks could get an idea of what tools I use (admittedly some more than other’s).

If you dump out my camera case… this is what falls out. Too see what it looks like packed inside see this photo.

Tech Details: If your curious how one takes a photograph of all of one’s photo gear the answer is you borrow a friends camera from down the street (a Rebel XT/350D with a Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L lens).

Lighting provided by one White Lighting X1600 to camera right difused through a large softbox, with Westcott 42" Silver reflector to camera right to just bring in some fill light. A short roll of White Savage Seamless just hanging off the knuckle arm of an Avenger C-Stand (easier and quicker than getting out a big background stand). Triggered by a good ole-fashioned sync cable connected to a Nikon AS-15 on the hot shoe since the RebelXT/350D lacks a PC Sync connector.

NOTE: This photo made it into Flickr’s ‘Explore" as one of the top five hundred most interesting photos on a particular day. You can see all of my photo’s that have made it into the Flickr Explore pages here.

Canon IIIA Camera


Image by Capt Kodak
Derived from a Leica design, Canon Camera Co. of Tokyo, Japan made approximately 600,000 of these 35mm rangefinder cameras between 1935 and 1968 of various types and lenses. This example, the IIIA, was manufactured from 1951 to 1953. The camera has shutter speeds of 1 sec. to 1/1000 of a sec.—but set on two dials. One selected speeds 1/1000 to 1/40 and then had a position to select the second dial that did 1/25 to 1 sec. The rangefinder had a selector level to allow you to see not only the fame of the shot, but also enlarge the central focusing portion 1X and 1.5X normal. It has a film speed reminder in the winding knob. It is fitted with a Canon Serenar f/1.8 50mm lens, but the lens is changeable. The camera is loaded through the baseplate.

It is shown here with the flash and reflector of the Canon Flash Unit B-II. I have the round battery holder, it's just not in the picture for clarity sake. This could be the "Rube Goldberg" of the synchronized flash world! If you look closely, you can see a second shutter button on the side of the flash unit. On the opposite side (not seen here) is a cocking lever. To make your flash picture, you set the camera to it's flash sync speed—1/25 sec.—and cocked not only the camera (by winding it) but also the flash unit! You could either press on the latch above the normal shutter button or use the second shutter button on the side of the flash unit—useful for taking portrait shots. The spring mechanism in the flash unit would fire the camera's shutter release and set off the flash at just the right time. Also, the flash reflector is removeable—not just for "easy storage" but also to accomidate a larger #31 press bulb instead of the #6 (shown here with it's matching socket adapter in place). And yes, all of this still works—if only I could find flash bulbs easy and cheap…
