In your bag 466, David Delagdo
An ex Graffiti artists bag? Yes please. David have a lovely mix of the old and new in this simple and delightful bag. Come and check it out.

Hello my name is David Delgado I am a graphic designer from Bronx, NY. As per tradition ill give you a little of my backstory.
I began as a graffiti artist in the late 80’s early 90’s but mayor gulliani was cracking down so i had to find a new hobby thats when i got my first camera a Petri Color 35 that i still own, so to make a long story short i shifted my artistic ideas to design and photography to fuel my inspiration. Also with my children getting bitten by the photography bug it’s become a family affair to go out and shoot together.

Here is my camera bag it is a Lowepro exchange messenger bag although this camera bag has very little padding it is the most discreet bag I have been able to find and isn’t ugly. The gear that is in my bag 90% of the time is as follows.

My Eos M with a 22mm lens a 35mm equivalent due to the crop factor (I sold my last DSLR a 7d for something less menacing while doing street photography). The Eos m’s auto focus is horrible but luckily I like to focus manually besides that this camera is awesome it’s so small and with the 18mp aps-c sensor it’s a perfect replacement to a DSLR for street photography and with the adapter i can still use my DSLR lenses when i’m not doing street photography.

Canonet Ql 17 g-III (The poor man’s Leica, I plan on getting a M6 in the near future) I love the quality of this camera and the size is perfect, i don’t need to rave about this camera there is enough positive reviews out there to get your fair share. All i can say is this camera has made me fall in love with film all over again.

Two Hama film safe-x (lead lined post 9-11 you never know when you will run into a x-ray machine) film safes full of ilford Hp-5 and Delta 100.

iPhone 5 with me 100% of the time (as the saying goes the best camera is the one you always have with you….or something to that effect) I use hipstamatic to shoot my images or snap seed to convert my photos to b&w and crop for Instagram. Many Photographers look down at instagram I embrace it and use it to display my iphoneography.

**side note: my pet peeve is when Instagram users upload photos taken with DSLRs or Medium format cameras, if you have skills show it with the medium the site was designed for!! **

Polaroid SX-70 alpha I picked this camera up for $20 in a thrift store with the original case. I use impossible project’s px70 color protection film I feel it’s their best film so far. I use it for candids and portraits, I’ll give shots to some subjects that I’ve captured on my other cameras.

Celestron lens pen

Moleskin notebook with a mechanical pencil for notes

Business cards

Some stickers when I want to reminisce on my vandal days
and finally a ipad mini to read this blog, magazines, books or surf the internets!
