maybe even keep a little checklist of smaller things (filters, cords, diffusers, etc...) which are easily forgotten about as one packs.
Hmm...that's a pretty good idea. I could have a different checklist or even a different accessory kit for different situations. eg. A flash photography kit with triggers/relievers, cables, flash mounts, gels, gaff tape, etc, An outdoor kit might have a polarizer, ND filters, etc. Macro would have a bellows, tripod, flash kit, etc...
I also that limiting myself to a smaller kit will, not only reduce the amount of crap I am hauling around, but also help me better anticipate and plan my shooting, and increase my creativity by learning how to better utilize particular equipment rather than just turning to another piece of gear anytime I hit a roadblock.
Thanks guys, I'd love to hear any other Ideas about long term storage, I'm still leaning towards some rubber-maid containers and foam, for the time being, and customizing each bag or case before each day or particular project.
I actually have job checklists on my desk. Just a quick pre-flight checklist before I go out on a job to make sure I have everything. (btw, made much easier when I just keep all my stuff in the bag, but...)
