Gear List

[MarkBarbieri]

On many photo sites, people list their gear in their sig. That doesn't seem particularly appropriate for a site like this that is predominantly made up of non-photography forums. Still, I think it would be useful to have an easy reference to who shoots with what. Some things are pretty easy to remember. GDad gets nice shots despite being a Nikon shooter. Mickey88 is a Sony man. UKCatFan is a Pentax shooter. I know WDWFigment has a Tokina super wide zoom. I can never remember what brand Groucho uses, but I know he has a fisheye.

So if you are interested, please post your gear list in this thread.

If I did photography for a living, I'd be lucky to be able to afford a cell phone with a camera. The real goes to my wife, who lets me squander so much money on gear.
