What is the strangest thing in your camera bag?

12 years 6 months ago #152104 by PamelaAnn
I see that I share some of the same items, corkscrew (but also throw in the small sized wine bottle), but I do have a couple extra fishing lures in my bag for the times I get distracted by fishing and added some lashing so I can bring my pole.

Would a baggy full of instant coffee, creamer and sugar count as something strange in camera bag?

I always have with me the most versatile travel accessory there is: a simple bandana.

Check out my recent blog post What's the Perfect Travel Accessory? where I list over 40 uses of a bandana.

Have any other uses to add?

In turkey speak you probably said something like " Thanksgiving is coming and there are hunters in the woods. I have the same problem when using a call as well

I have nothing more unusual than what has been posted already but I do carry pipe cleaners in my bag, helps to hang things and are soft enough not to damage any equipment. I also have pen flashlights, cereal bars, chewing gum (helps the fresh breath especially while shooting a wedding), money, and no one has said it yet but i carry my instruction manual for my camera and flash unit. I know nobody read those things before turning on a new camera LOL :beerbang:
