Best camera accessory

[fredus]

Hi there !

Well just a little thread about your best/favorite camera accessory. It can be anything you really like and would like to share with other .. Either a strap, a case, a cool hood, a bag ... Anything !

Me ? It's probably The Pod !!

I have a Pod too, and I also find it extremely useful. Fits in a pocket and saves taking a tripod everywhere.

My fave- the Sekonic L-208 Twinmaster Compact Incident / Reflected Light Meter.

Phew. Anyway, long name for a very handy light meter that is only a tiny bit over two inches in length. Makes all my old rangefinders worthwhile. And, it's easy to read, with or without my glasses.

I think that would be more of a necessity, as opposed to an accessory 🙂

An attractive partner. They can act as an assistant on shoots and model when you need them to 😉 ..... Now where do I find one?

Even better - a tolerant partner who doesn't blink when you buy another old camera! And I've found mine (and she's not bad looking, either!).

Leatherman micra, used it the other day for adjusting a loose screw on my contax.
It´s small, useful and it works . . you can do almost all the same things you do with the regular leatherman. And it has a Scissors for cutting films.

Is it just me or does that sound kinky?

 

[kiev4a]

A good, accurate, hand-held meter (even if your camera has one).

 

[FrankS]

How about a keen/passionate photogrpher to operate the camera?
