Inside Martin Smith’s Camera bag! (Bag No60)
Hi,
My name is Martin Smith and I’m a street photographer from the UK, most of my work is based in and around London. I started street photography just over a year ago when I got a Fuji x100s for my Birthday. The x100s is a great little camera, but after a while I found that shooting digital just wasn’t inspiring me anymore, so I purchased a Leica M6 TTL in March which I have been using since. When I go out to shoot street I don’t carry a bag I have the camera on a shoulder strap which I wrap around my wrist and the rest of my stuff goes in my pockets. I love walking around the city making photographs of interesting people, I now need to visit more cities and make more photographs.
My bag contains:
Contents:
- Leica M6 TTL 0.85
- Voigtlander 35mm Color Skopar 2.5
- Dead Cameras Strap
- Weston Euromaster Light Meter
- Japan Camera Hunter Half Case
- A selection of Colour and B&W film
- Lens Cloth
- Lens Pen
- Sharpie Pen
Closing:
There’s never enough time for street photography.

Rules of participation
Each person that submits the contents of his bag will also be allowed 150 words to describe her / him self to the rest of the StreetHunters.net Readers via the www.streethunters.net website pages! We will even allow one link, back to your website! It will be loads of fun! Why? Well, because we will start to get to know each other through these small 150 word descriptions and of course through the contents of each one’s bags! Now, when we say Camera Bag, it doesn’t have to literally be a bag. It could be a pouch, a backpack, pockets of a jacket, whatever. All we need is the list of all the contents and a photo of those contents on a wooden or carpeted (preferably) floor from above. What must be included in the email you send us? Here is the list of things you need to provide us with in order to have a valid entry:
- 150 word description of yourself and your Street Photography quirks, habits, tips, whatever. 150 words MAX.
- Photo of the contents of your bag and your bag next to those contents on a floor, shot from 90 degrees above. High quality, big size.
- List of items included in your camera bag.
- Link to your website OR blog OR facebook page OR GooglePlus page OR whatever.
- A closing remark 20 words MAX. You can say for example something like Thank for letting me share the contents of my bag, now stop looking into my privates and go take some photos!
We thank you in advance for your participation and we are really looking forward to finding out what YOU are hiding in your camera bags! Send everything in at streethunters.net@gmail.com! Stay Sharp & Keep Shooting!
