I never carry a light meter or tripod, I usually shoot with an old Yashica D 6x6 TLR, w/ a standard 80mm lense - Occasionally, when I feel energetic, or am going someplace I don't get to very often, I'll take a Pentax 6x7 ( I have owned two of them since the early 80's) w/ a 55mm lense... or an old Nikon with a 20mm. I did 4x5 view camera work (shooting architecture) for ten years so "been there, done that" is my attitude towards alot of what is considered 'strict/technically perfect/"shoot everything from a tripod".. photography - I would much rather be able to walk 'the extra mile', than carry alotta extra crap - "being there" is still the first rule of photography. Standard film is Agfa 100, developed in Rodinal, 1:50. There's always a yellow filter on the lense, or taped inside the camera ( the Yashica allows this). 'Darkroom equipment' consists of a Beseler 45MX I bought in 1981/82, with lenses for all formats,...4 16x20 plastic trays,...and not much else - except a few tongs.
