Ki Choquette:

f-stop Millar Series Bandon: This bag is pretty much perfect for my uses. Relatively small size, fits all my cameras and accessories and even my laptop when I really need it to.

Rolleicord V: An absolutely wonderful 6x6 camera that I can't stop using. I got it for a steal on eBay and it only needed a simple repair to fix the low shutter speeds. Now it shoots perfectly and looks great. This will be in my bag for a very long time.

Canon Canonet QL17 GIII: A simple little rangefinder with a great lens. I generally just keep low speed film in this camera for when I need it. The viewfinder's a little fogged but the camera still produces a mean image.

Leica M4: This is pretty much the crown jewel of my bag, I think. I waited close to nine years before I could really afford to get one of these. A Carl Zeiss C-Biogon 35mm f/2.8 with a 3D printed hood is what I keep on it, unless I need the 50mm.

Canon Serenar 50mm f/1.8: I absolutely love this lens. It's in near perfect condition and is sharp as a tack with some insanely creamy bokeh. I don't use this one enough, but when I do, the results are near flawless. Great color representation and awesome ergonomics.

Notebook/ball point pen: I like to chart location data and exposure. Sometimes contact information if I've taken a street portrait and the person wants more information at a later date.

Business cards: Simple design featuring some photos I took on the back. Environmentally friendly paper, as well!

Sekonic Twinmate L-208: Just got this little meter off of eBay a few weeks ago. It's taken me a while to ween myself off of Sunny 16 and my iPhone's LightMeter App, but I'm thankfully I've done so. I'm very happy with the results and the size is absolutely great for my RF heavy bag.

Film: Various types, but mostly color as of late.

Christmas hint: Camera straps are always nice presents for photo enthusiasts. One can never have enough!

Christopherr M:

I try to keep it simple.

My bag is a Billingham Hadley Large. Simple, stylish with great quality. The only reason why I chose the large size was that I needed it to fit my MacBook Pro for days when I need to lug around that heavy brick for work.

Leica M4-P. My main camera for street work at the moment. Love it to death. Completely mechanical with only full manual use. With no light meter, its forcing me to manually read light. Both a good and bad thing. Its got a Voigtlander 35mm f/1.4 lens attached to it.

Konica Hexar AF. This is a great camera as it allows me to just shoot freely and not worry about any technical junk. It can shoot in program mode, aperture priority and has FAST auto focus. I dont have to put to much work with this body as I do with my M4-P. This thing is also RIDICULOUSLY QUIET! Sometimes when I hit the shutter, I myself dont know that a frame has been taken. Super stealthy for street! Its got a fixed 35mm f/2 lens. The glass is fantastic.

YN560 Flash. I dont shoot a lot with flash. But this was a good/cheap flash to pick up for those rare cases when i want to use it. ...in reality, im scared to flash people. But im working on it :)

Gordy's Hand Strap. Love these straps. I have two. One is a 40" neck strap. The other is a hand strap.

35mm Film. I normally use Portra 400 for colour and Neopan 400 for BW. However, Ive been recently shooting a lot with Superia 400. Why? There was a great sale on it a couple months ago over at B&H, so I loaded up. I also have one of the famed 35mm fujifilm hard cases from JapanCameraHunter.

iPhone 3GS. For the occasions when I dont have a camera with me, I shoot with this. The camera is not the greatest, the shutter lag on it is terrible, but its a camera, so its fine. I also have the (free) light meter app, which helps me when I shoot with my M4-P.

Bits and bobs not shown... Lens pen, microfibre cloth, business cards, headphones, small moleskin notebook and either my ipad or a random comic book (for times when my poor feet need a rest).

What's in your purse?

Extension tube 16E: Nice match for the 110mm lens. Macro still life can be attained.

Ilford HP5 Plus: Portrait film. Tonality is second to none at 400iso. Something close might be Tmax 400 which gives off a very vintage 70s b&w feel.

Fujichrome Provia 400X: Fave colour film of the night. Easily push 2stops and still retain details and no grains! Super saturated colours that has a cinematic punch to its pictures. Dont leave home without it!

Fomapan 400: My fave film and also my last roll. This inexpensive B&W film goes into all my cameras and follows me everyday. So far, the best result from my self-developing.

Ilford Delta 3200: Nocturnal king. Moody and grainy.I like.

Zeiss Planar 110mm f/2 FE T*: Probably the most interesting in the Hasselblad arena and the fastest in MF I can think of. Medium format lenses come in f2.8 or an f2.8 for over 100mm usually. But if you think Norita's dreamy 80mm f2 or Mamiya's f1.9 is fast, you haven't tried this yet. A monster at f2, it melts away everything not in focus. The excellent correction and modern T* coating is really high resolving and whatever is in focus is crispy and 3D no matter at what aperture. This is a lens I have always long to try and I bet is sharper than the already sharp Planar 80mm for sure. Being fast in optic design is no big deal, optical correction and size really is.

Hasselblad 203FE: My dream Hassy. It has AE for quick shooting. I finally can ditch my light meter at home!

E12 back: Nothing beats 12/12 square format right? Now with electronic connection, I can load in, set the iso and shoot away in a breeze.

ARTISAN&ARTIST* Torpedo bag: A birthday present from Miss Mao. Hardly see it in action as it is always too small to fit all my gears :p

Fujifilm X100

Domke F-803

Ken Yuel:

I have owned my X100 camera for a couple months now and thoroughly love it's retro styling and photo capabilities. It is the perfect camera for unobtrusive street photography and when coupled with the rugged Domke F-803 you have the right amount of storage that is easily carried around all day. Some of the features I appreciate with the X100 are..

Large Sensor (slightly larger than in my Canon 7D)

Fast F2.0 35mm lens

5 Frames per second when needed,

Hybrid View Finder, and

Killer HD Video.....

Canon AE-1

Canon 430EX flash. Very interesting that this still works with the old camera in manual mode

Sigma 10-20 mm F4,0-5,6 EX DC lense. But that one won't work on the AE-1..

A nice scarf. It is always nice to have one of those with you. It obviously warms when it is cold. But it can also be used to protect the equipment. Just wrap it in!

Some tiny jars: Hand Sanitizer, Film, Bach Rescue Remedy, Neti Stick.

Always need a pen with you! Black double-tipped marker.
