The kit I need for the start of term. I just knew when I sold my old manual Canon that I might need it one day, damn. The film cameras I have are medum format: a Lubtel, the Mamiya and a Holga so I guess I better have a looky on evilBay. I use mainly natural light (sometimes supplemented by studio light) for my stuff so again a flashgun needs to be got… The equipment list does say some type of digital camera will be helpful but not essential.

Hurrah! I can still use my 350d then ;o)

We had lots of fun looking at very sexy Manfrotto tripods today. Luckily for me they had a secondhand 3-way standard head so with the tripod itself it wasn’t too bad. I think Bubb was enamoured by the ‘engineered-ness’ of them and had more of a play than I did. I think I’m going to use it shooting Anouk tomorrow (once she is out of her curlers) and give it a good testing, heh.

There seems so much to do and get in the next three weeks, *meep*.
