What's the most expensive thing yal left at a shoot before?

I can't find 2 of my tripods or my Insta360 cam stand. I'm pretty sure my goofy ass must of left them at a damn shoot I did over a month ago. Go rounding up my shyt for a shoot for tomorrow and I can't find it.

I just messaged this guy that owns the space that we used to see if he still has my shyt.

I hate lugging around hella gear cause no matter what, I swear something always gets left behind
:why:

I've left my gimbal in my homie's car after a shoot before. Didn't even realize it until I got home

I need to work with an assistant, between lighting, stands, stabilizers and everything else it's easy for me to lose track of everything

My first time shooting with a camera, and my first time using film. The entire way back, I was worried that i was gonna get blank rolls back because I had loaded the film wrong or something. Thank God that wasn't the case.

Not too bad for a camera i got for $55.:mjlol:

An old Praktica LTL, with a Pentacon 50mm f/1.8 lens, using portra 400 film.

I was actually looking for super cheap film, like a Kodak gold or color plus, but I was having trouble locating some locally. The store I ended up buying from told me that Kodak was having a shortage, and so the film was on backorder. Felt bad, because I told him this portra 400 film was probably gonna go to waste.

Really enjoyed this experience. Doubt I will carry a camera every where I go, but I don't think I'll go on trips without it for sure. Everyone loved looking through the viewfinder and hearing the loud ass shutter too.:russ:

Took my film to a shop in san francisco that is competitively priced, and generally gets them developed and scanned the same day. Anxiety subsided once I got an email with 74 files.:blessed:

Anybody in here a licensed drone pilot?
@Kamikaze Revy @shutterguy

If so, what's the process like and how much does it cost?
Also... that DJI FPV drone looks sexy af... I want it :demonic:

:noah:

I'm not yet, I have studied the material just gotta make an appt to take the test ($150). I'll link the material below. That FPV for me is a must have, next level video right there. I'll have the Mavic 2 for pro work and the FPV for fun stuff. Have watched that DJI promo video too many times :ohlawd:

Material:
