I’m taking off for Miami tonight, for the M3 Miami Music Multimedia Summit. My partners in design and I have been working on the site, identity, signage, and all things aesthetic for the week long event, and now we shall drink heavily and wake up with sand in our drawers.

I’ll also be doing as much shooting as physically possible while I’m there (barring too many beachcombers), and I wanted to be sure I had everything I’d need. The OCD inside me snuck through my usual slacker facade and I managed to lay everything out just so.

OCD

In some kind of left-to-right order (taken with a camera phone, so pardon the craptasticness):

  1. Grey card
  2. Collapsable reflector
  3. Lens wipe
  4. 12” PowerBook (seen better days)
  5. PDN
  6. Case for light meter
  7. Sigma lens case that fits the Hasselblad 40mm perfectly
  8. Travel tripod (just got this, we’ll see it it’ll hold up)
  9. iPod photo camera connector, on top of Canon 20D usb cable
  10. Canon 20D, 17-40mm L lens
  11. Canon 420ex flash
  12. Canon 50mm f1.8 lens
  13. Cable releases (20D and regular plunger type), and egg timer
  14. iPod Photo 60gb
  15. 12” Firewire cable and Firewire-to-Dock adapter (so I only need one cable for all Firewire needs)
  16. 6 rolls of T-Max 400 for my new favorite camera
  17. New favorite camera; Olympus Stylus Epic point-and-shoot
  18. Hasselblad 40mm Distagon lens
  19. Hasselblad 500cm with 80mm Planar lens and A12 film back
  20. Sekonic L-508 light meter
  21. 5 rolls of Kodak 400NC, 7 rolls of Kodak 160NC, 1 roll of Kodak Plus X 125 (had that forever)
  1. Crumpler bag that in the darkness binds them

Here’s hoping I come back with something worth the schlepping of all this crap.
