Rogue Flash Benders

I have three Flash Bender Kits, including grids, boxes and folding ones, and they all come in handy when needed. best yet, they are there when I need it because they pack flat in the front pocket of my backpack.

Light & Motion Urban 650 LED Bike Light (Black Nitro)

This is a bike light normally used on handlebars, but lives perfectly on my tripod leg. At 650 lumens, it provides an amazing, always-ready focusing light that leave my hands free to lock focus and compose.

A great cable release for for timed exposures. Buy the wired model rather than the wireless for hassle free functionality.

Lomography New Petzval 85 Art Lens

An odd lens and an odd focal length for NPy, but when used properly for portraits, it creates a stand-out visual difference at wide apertures and repeating backgrounds.
