In Topic: Did we really carry that much?

28 March 2021 - 04:52 PM

In the 1970s I carried a (heavy) Nikon F with motor drive, a Nikkormat, a Yashicmat and often a Leica M2r plus 2 or 3 strobes, lenses, filters, film. The weight was beside the point -- the ability to GET THE SHOT was everything. Sometimes I also carried a 100-300 zoom lens. I used the zoom when I got the only decent photo I ever got of Elvis Presley.
