the camera in her hand is a canon 1d series (cant tell what mark). my best guess since it doesnt have the poor flow of an added grip. no clue about the lens.
the lens hanging all the way to her right side(the white lens) looks like the canon 100-400L
the canon under her left arm looks like a gripped 5d (mk I or mk II) with a 16-35L or a 17-40L (sort of a guess but they are the most logical for that camera in that circumstance)
the camera all the way to her left i have no clue but judging by the texture of the lens body i can tell you its a nikon
The Nikons:
The one in the centre of the image appears to be a D3 with a 24-70mm lens, and on the far right another D3 with the 70-200mm, both good lenses and a good camera.
Meh, I started out with a couple of little nitpicks and ended up disagreeing with almost everything. Apologies in advance.
I’m pretty sure the one she’s holding isn’t a 1D or 1Ds – the prism is too angular, so if it’s a Canon at all, it’s one with a pop-up flash. The lens definitely isn’t a Canon one, and doesn’t look like any third-party style I know of. I don’t recognise the strap either.
The white lens isn’t a Canon either. The shape’s wrong for a 100-400L and the black dot near the front doesn’t match any Canon lens (the biggest telephoto lenses have them, but always surrounded by black rubber). It looks more like a white version of the Nikon 70-200 f/2.8, with the wrong colour lens hood. Yes, it’s the same lens as the one on the far right, just with different paint.
I agree the camera under her left arm is a 5D of some variety, but the lens is a 24-70L. The lens hood is too long for one of the wider zooms.
Hey… I saw this woman at our high school graduation! I think it’s Tim’s mom (she was always a little off, and she DOES have 37 pictures of the moment he received his diploma…)
I agree that this isn’t what it looks like, the convention sounds more like it. There aren’t very many photographer that have Nikon and Canon cameras. We usually stick to one brand.
It’s a gag shot. One thing photographers make fun of is the twit that thinks if he just gets the right camera, he’ll get all the good shots. Or the guy that brings so many cameras (with separate lenses) to the shoot that he is forever picking up the wrong one and missing the shot, making them do it over and taking 5 times longer than he would have if he’d just brought one good lens and taken a couple of steps forward or back.
That Metz “potato masher” flash she’s holding is the stuff, if you don’t mind the weight. The head will move 90 degrees up as well as rotate, and the shiny spot right below it is a secondary emitter, so you can bounce light off the ceiling and get fill at the same time. It’s also one of the most powerful portable flashes available, so the head will bounce enough light even from VERY high ceilings.
And I thought I was bad, owning three cameras.. two digitals, one 1980′s Minolta with some epic lenses. But I don’t haul around all three, plus lenses together all at once….. ok, I *do* haul around all three, plus lenses, together all at once.
she sees what you did there
That kit includes everything including the kitchen sink, which comes preloaded with chemicals for processing film!
And Sepia Lens…heh.
Sigh, I wish I had that many cameras.
PS: They do that so that they don’t have to switch lens or filters.
Do I know you? Because I have at least two friends with your brand of camera-zealotry.
Looks like all the stuff I used to carry in the days before digital . . .
Probably buy a house with the amount of money it cost for all those cameras/lenses.
Or really, a decent car.
The car better be moar than just decent. It better be EPIC.
I can’t imagine how much that must weigh. No way she can take a steady photo. Did she bring the tripod, too?
that’s what’s holding her up…..
well that is a big load of money you are seing over there ,,,
Sepia lens?
*facepalm*
Yeah, apparently they exist, but are downright stupid…. honestly, everyone does it in post these days…
They exist as a filter (which screws onto any lens with matching filter thread), not as a lens.
ya thats what i was thinking too, ive got a whole buch of filters but have never heard of a sepia lense. lmao
My thoughts exactly
This woman has reached the nirvana of being an Asian – Camera Bliss.
My money says that she is paparazzi… Those bastards would sell their souls just for a million dollar shot of Britney’s hoo hoo…
Now, can anyone here tell me exactly what cameras AND lenses she has there?

just my guesses though

I’m confused about the need for such a massive flash in what appears to be daylight.
Fill light.
Fill?
Actually, that flash most likely senses the amount of light being reflected from the subject and adjusts its output accordingly.
it’s for filler light. the sun casts harsh shadows on the subject. using flash outside fills in the shadows and make the subject more evenly lit.

well equipped…
You know those times when you go to take a group photo, and everyone hands you their cameras so they can have a copy…?
This is actually at a professional photographer’s convention during the group photo. They all said “here, take one with mine!”
Hey… I saw this woman at our high school graduation! I think it’s Tim’s mom (she was always a little off, and she DOES have 37 pictures of the moment he received his diploma…)
She may be a stand up comic
I agree that this isn’t what it looks like, the convention sounds more like it. There aren’t very many photographer that have Nikon and Canon cameras. We usually stick to one brand.
The real shock here is that she is using both Canon and Nikon Cameras, thus neutralizing a large rivalry.
here you can borrow mine

Gotta say, I’d kill for that Metz though.
