Am I only one who is afraid to use he's gear any any other

Also nowd ays I just try to hoard alot of film shit that I dare to use, but I just can't get myself to use my 5D outdoors.

If you're that worried, get some insurance on your 5D.

Damn, a big part of photography is the adventure aspect. Searching for subjects in your environment, and expressing yourself through how you capture them in a photo is a great feeling. You're missing out, man. It's your thing, but you're definitely missing out.

Sure, a ship is safest in port, but that's not what it's really meant for

No you're not alone, /p/ is full of useless gearfags such as yourself

>Am I only one who is afraid to use he's gear any any other place exept indoors?

Nah, camera's are pretty resilient. I would be way worried of breaking my phone while doing some shit outside than my camera.

I got an insurance for my 5D,

troll thread again?

you're making up those 'excuses' and you know that.

>>2758291
Yeah, if you try to use that camera it might get scratched! and then everyone will think you're a shitty photographer. Everyone knows pros have spotless gear that only see the light of day to be cleaned.

Why would you be afraid? I handed my main camera to young kids I didn't even know well. I just didn't give them the heaviest lenses.

But really, if it breaks, it breaks and you just suck it up and replace it. A modern digital camera isn't exactly something unique.

lol no,
i was waist deep in pumping surf the other day taking pics of a coastline. worth the risk always.

nah I got a pentacks

and even if it breaks I can just get a different camera because i only paid 300 for the body

the point of having a camera is not to have and protect a camera, it's to be able to take photos of interesting things. If you don't want to take photos of interesting things, why do you have a camera?

Nah, I'm pretty gentle with my stuff and it was meant to be used anyway.

I don't like having my camera around my neck though, makes me feel like a tourist. I think a wrist strap would be better for me.
