Info
While my initial experiments with Photography included creating and using box cameras out of anything I could get my hands on (I remember using a Colgate box as a camera once), I now mostly shoot 35mm as well as medium format, both film and digital. My trips end up being quite a challenge when it comes to carrying all my equipment while being able to move around with ease. I do find that while the medium format rig is heavier and bulkier, and can truly become a huge effort to lug around for 16 hours a day, the results well justify the sacrifice.
