Id agree with the above but if im just walking around town taking photos or on a trip, skip the stand umbrellas and reflectors. Also id include a uv filter and a polorizing(sp?) filter, and probably an 80a i believe (blue) filter.
Maybe immortality is death.
Yeah I unfortunately know a poor D200 which never found it's way out of ProgramAuto mode. I think every time someone clicks the shutter on that thing god kills a kitten. - Garbz

UV filter always live on my camera lenses; tripod if it's not a burden - as there's nothing better to give yourself a lovely crisp shot; lens cleaning cloth; flash; flash mounted light box which folds neatly into my pocket; wide 50mm lens; circular polariser; and of course: spare memory and battery!
