What's In Your Bag Right Now?

Kiev 2 which came back after service in Kiev yesterday. I-22 for another camera, which isn't in the bag.
 
Hmm. Same stuff that's been in it for a while: Leica M-D, Summilux 35, Summitar-M 75, a few small accessories (SD card adapter for iPad, cables, spare battery, etc.).

My other grab'n'go bag has the Leica SL + SL24-90 in it with similar small accessories.
 
I'm trying a new system, no bag. All my gear is on shelves in a cabinet and I'll pluck which ever I want to play with and go from there. In the event that I want to take a choice of lenses, I have a belly bag that will hold three and an extra battery.

Nothing wrong with that!
 
I don't like to carry much, and I don't really like most camera bags... so it's a Crumpler Skivvy (Small) with:

Monochrom + 35mm f/2.5 Color Skopar
Phone
Wallet
Keys
Notebook
Pen

Sometimes it has a hat in it. Sometimes a jumper.
 
When I shoot upscale venues, I usually put two X-Pro1 bodies in a leather messenger bag. One body with a 23mm f/1.4 and the other with a 56mm f/1.2 Fuji lens and a divider between them.

Also in the bag are two extra batteries, two extra memory cards, and a custom white balance tool (like an ExpoDisc). A small flash unit is an optional extra item.

A chrome and gold Ricoh Auto Half that's definitely over-exposing but gotta test to be sure... and a newly acquired Super Baldax that's going to be getting a good clean tonight. Miraculously considering all the rust and grime it's fully working except for a little pin that's been bent from someone forcing the door shut. Even the rangefinder's absolutely spot on. Chuffed.

Also my Minox 35ML that I'll be selling because I've realised it encourages me to take bad photos by being too convenient and portable.
 
I am comparing two Summicron lenses since yesterday.
35/2 version 1 on the M9
50/2 Rigid on the M8.
Both lenses are great lenses.
 
In my daily commuter backpack these days: MM1 with ZM 50 Planar and Voigtlander 90.

I'm thrilled to recently have found a camera backpack with left side access, so I don't have to take it off to remove the camera. Just swing it around like a sling bag. Terrific.

Nice setup Raid. The Summicron 32 1 is my everyday 35mm. Great lens. Found any issues with M9?
