I agree completely ... I'll never go out shooting with all
that gear. Reminds me of a story that took place about two
years ago. A group of us from the list got together, and not
knowing what gear to take (never having shot with a bunch of
Ace Photographers before, and wanting to be prepared for any
contingency and look "sharp"), I took a few bodies, several
lenses, a tripod, and lots of film. I don't think I got a
decent picture all day, but I did get to injure my back,
confuse myself with all the choices, and laugh at my stupidity
when I returned home.
