After countless hours of researching, purchasing, and organizing my camera equipment, I think I'm set to go.

This is pretty much all of the camera equipment I am taking with me for my desert workshop class for the next 6 weeks

Canon 40D
2 Konica 35mm SLR Bodies
Canon 15mm 2.8 fisheye, 50mm 1.4, 28-135 3.5
Konica 28mm, 40mm, 85 mm, and 70-200mm all 2.8 fixed aperture
Canon Battery charger- 2 third party replacement batteries from sterling tek.com
Canon 430 EXII flash
Lens paper and solution
2 lens cleaning brushes
anti static cloth
Lomo Fisheye camera with flash
Bren _Squared's 4x5 pinhole camera
Holga 120 film camera
Filter packs
Memory cards, flash drives, external harddrive
Canned air

Battery Chargers along with AA's, AAA's batteries

Toyo 4x5 view camera with a 150mm and 210 mm lenses
FIeld focusing cloth (black and white)
3 film holders
2 polaroid backs
30 sheets of Polaroid type 54, and 72
cable release
Sekonic L-758 Light Meter

manfrotto tripod

oh and how could i forget...
Color and black and white 4x5, 35mm, and 120mm film. at least 100 all together...thank goodness for quantity discount. Also I have a rain cover for my cameras (weather permitting)

This along with other course readings and camping will be my life for the next 6 weeks. For some odd reason though I cannot find my Sony Point n Shoot camera, must have misplaced while moving in between apartments. As if I needed more cameras to bring along...

I am thankful GVSU is letting me borrow a lot of this equipment as well. The 15mm fisheye, the holga 120, filters, light meter, and a polaroid back were all borrowed, and the 4x5 pinhole belongs to brendan. hopefully I can get something out of that.

Kate, Nicole, and I plan to leave GR around 10-11am Saturday to Drive to St. Louis, then spend a night whereever we make it, then arriving in Santa Fe, NM by Tuesday the 12th. Tomorrow (friday) we plan to pack up Kate's car with all of our luggage and camping equip.

Packing the rest of my clothes and other accessories isn't done but its getting there. By tomorrow this packing business should be done and then soon enough I will be on the road
