Back UP Equipment!

The season is almost here and we are all gearing up for it.  Gear!  You can never have enough.  In the film days, I would always carry 3 bodies with me.  If one went down, I still had two.  The third was somewhat of a security blanket.  Mamiya would usually turn a repair around in less than a week.  (They truly are the benchmark when it comes to customer service.)   No problem.  Then comes Digital.  Send in a body for repair to either C or N, and you could be looking at 2 weeks or longer.  The power of 3!  I had planned on my wedding kit to include two bodies (I just bought them within the last 4 months), but as Murphy’s Law would prove, two is not enough.  So off to the Camera shop I went to buy a third one.  So keep that in mind before the season starts, There is a price to be paid for sanity.
