A little of everything depending on what I'm doing....
Lenses (all Canon unless noted): 10-22mm, 28-135mm (not my favorite), Sigma 50mm f1.4, 85mm f1.8
A couple of 550ex flashes, a 30D, circular polarizers and a Canon D10 (underwater) point and shoot for goofing off at the beach or in the jungle.

Cynthia -- My primary wildlife combo is the 1D MarkIII with the 500mm lens, but I always have a smaller zoom for the times when the subject is too close for the 500mm. Usually the 70-200 on one of other camera bodies

LMay - The lipstick comment is outstanding!

That's quite a list Scotty. Must have cost you a lot of $$. ;)

In my bag right now is D3s + Sigma 50 1.4 Which is the combo I carry with me all the time.

I will probably replace the D3s with a 2nd hand D700 soonish for every day stuff, just for something a bit lighter.

How do you like the Lee big stopper filter? I have been shopping around for months trying to find one. No one has it in stock. I have even called up Lee filters in CA and they don't have anything either.
