That's the sun, brotha.

Devin, I have a question for you. I'm on the waiting list for the SCCC photo program. I have quite a bit of experience with the photographic arts but need help with the business aspects if I'm ever going to "live the dream". I've been saving up money this year so that I can get all the appropriate equipment. I hear there is a detailed list of gear required for the program and was hoping you could let me in on some of the items so that I can start getting acquainted with them now. Things like: strobe kit, lenses, body (I have a 7D...do they require full frame?), modifiers, etc.

If you could help me out here, I'd appreciate it greatly. I've enjoyed following your progress!

Hey, so the list changes every year. Near the end of the 1st year the instructors ask the first years what they used and what they didn't use and they re-do the list. Also if new equipment comes out (I.e. strobe kits, lenses, tripods) they will be an option on the list. Another thing, students that get accepted into the program get a discount at glazers camera and its a pretty good discount. So I would wait. Full frame is not required (I shoot with a 1d mk4) you just have to have a 7d or up (7d, 5d mkII, 1d mk4, 1d x).

The first year of the program focuses on lighting. Its not till the second year that we get into business and you really get to focus on what you want to shoot. Its an awesome program, hope you get in!

Thanks,
Devin
