Portable equipment for specific lines Hey, I’m getting into photography, and I’d like to make documentary photography with the style of Gabriele Galimberti and Andreas Gursky, so quite straight “flat” effects.

Does your equipment have sentimental value to you?

Does your equipment have sentimental value to you? I sent in a pair of hiking boots that has a minor defect under warranty and they ended up just sending back a new pair…. And I’m a bit bummed.

What do you do with old/broken equipment? I’ve been a photographer for quite a while now and I’m not sure what do I do with old/broken equipment. I recently broke an umbrella style softbox (Godox UBW-120) and I also have a Godox TT685N that doesn’t fire all the time. Should I recycle them? Can I repurpose them? submitted by /u/n0_data_available

How do you transport equipment?

( www.reddit.com )

How do you transport equipment? C-Stands, tripods, backdrops, modifiers, lighting, reflectors, shims! Making multiple trips to the car when shooting on-site or in studios gets to be a pin. I’m looking for options and saw this. Maybe 2 of these and a cart would make a single trip of it all(?) Thoughts? Alternatives? submitted by /u/rGlenndonShoots_

What precautions have you taken? Wh…
