In your bag No: 1602 – Ralf Danylyschyn
Ralf likes to keep it light and minimal with both super vintage film and digital Leicas.
My Name is Ralf Danylyschyn and this is my smallest everywhere und anytime bag. I’m an IT-engineer from southern germany. I have at least one camera with me all the time. And I try to shoot even in my lunch breaks.
Taking photos is an extension to perception and cognition to me. Looking around and seeing gives you the chance to find the little and the big secrets in our lives. There are not only the big or decisive moments – the one-and-only shots. And so small everywhere and anytime cameras are more than useful.
The bag is a Lowe Pro Format “120”. Nothing special, but I dig it out again and again.
In the bag are
– a Leica IIIc/f with a Summitar 50
– a Leica X1 with the external viewfinder
– an additional battery
– my IPhone SE (notes, lightmeter, cards, GPS…)
– a spare film (Kodak, Foma or Rollei 400 ISO).
These two have much in common: the design, the quality. And they are the least expensive way to get Leica IQ, haptic and experience. Both cameras have their weak points, so you need to get some experience to master them.
See some photos of the X1 here:
Have fun,
Ralf
Thanks for sending us your bag shot, Ralf. Interesting and eclectic mix of very different eras of the red dot.
Keep them coming folks, we need more submissions, so get your bag on Japancamerahunter.com
Send me a high resolution image of the bag. Optimum size is 1500px across. Please ensure there is a bag in the shot, unless you don’t use one. The more you can write about yourself the better, make it appealing and tell us a story. Snapshots of your gear with a camera phone and no words will not be featured.
Oh and don’t forget your contact details (twitter, flickr, tumbler et al). Send the bag shots here. Please understand that there is a long wait now as there is a backlog of submissions. Not all make the cut, so make sure yours is funny/interesting/quirky. And please make sure the shot is of good quality, as the ones that are not do not go up.
Cheers
