I think we had a thread like this about a year ago. It got shut down because fujilove turned it into pro/anti edc knife thread. Beware.
 
Don't have a pic, but my edc loads (one for everyday, one for work):

everyday:
Apple - iPhone 7
Raven Workshop - Key Grip 2
McGizmo - Haiku (custom LED flashlight)
Big Skinny Men's Super Skinny Bi-Fold Slim Wallet
GEC - Huckleberry Boy's Knife with ebony scales (low humidity days since it's carbon steel)
Chris Reeves - Mnandi with snakewood scales (high humidity days since it's stainless steel and titanium)
Leica M4 or M6 (for years it was paired with 35 Summicron ASPH but lately it's been 35 Summilux pre-asph)



work (teaching):
all of the above (with exception of the M4/M6) plus
Stowa - Flieger (watch)
Conid Bulkfiller with titanium EF nib (fountain pen) - almost always filled with an iron gall ink (old formula Mont Blanc Midnight Blue, Platinum Blue-Black, or Rohrer und Klingner Salix)
Lamy 2000 ballpoint pen
Lamy 2000 0.7 mechanical pencil
Pentel Kerry 0.7 mechanical pencil
Olympus Trip 35
Apple - Macbook Air
all packed in: Saddleback Leather Briefcase (large)
 
Okay, I'll play, but I'm not gonna lay it all out for inspection. :) Yes, there's a camera in there! No spare roll of film but I'm sure there's a spare SD card in there somewhere. :) Sorry, no weapons, not my thing.

Darlings,

For a while, when I was assigned the magistrate office, I used nothing but an X100 and a wifi SD card that sent all pictures to my iphone.

I don't remember the name of the SD card. It was the orange colour.

The phone is used as the light table.

I write the caption, write the copy, and transmit everything to the editors from the phone.

Splendido!!

I think also that I see a snub nosed something in DavidNewtonGuitars' post.... ;-)

Ciao,
Mme. O
 
No man bag here. For me the camera must fit in a pocket.
A small lightweight pocketable 35, preferably a "capsule" type camera.
Also I try to buy only jackets that have an inside chest pocket.

usually it's a camera slung on a shoulder with a roll of film in the pocket. if i do take a bag, it's usually the following:

the iphone is useful for ultra low light metering (not pictured). yes, a water bottle is a necessity during the texas summer. :)
 
This is what I carry every day on the motorbike, but not sitting on the tank while going. It's in a bum-bag. M6 with Elmar-M 50/2.8:

This. All goes in a small shoulder bag that I nearly always carry.


The corroded item at the bottom is a "steampunk" USB drive, and the thing at the top right is a power bank. There's a torch and screwdriver attached to my penknife – our American cousins may know that guns are illegal in the UK, but may be unaware we have very strict knife laws too, hence my tiny one (no knife longer than 3 inches in public, plus anything not a utility (e.g. kitchen) knife is illegal).


Note: no camera. I used to always carry a compact one, but phones are now so good that there's no point!
