Could it possibly be a "Canon" camera?

To school, I carry large amounts of manila folders and paper, pens, books, my graphing calculator, my ancient 4 gig Ipod, my Flash drive "Voytek", and occasionally my XO-1. However, the cool thing would be the bag, which is the Megatokyo bag, like Piro carries.

If I'm just gonna be out for a bit then usually just my cell and my wallet.

If I'm going to be out for awhile then usually I will carry my backpack along with my cell and wallet and my backpack will have my laptop, Laptop Power Cable, my PSP, my notebook, my sketchbook, and my writing utensils.

If anyone's interested I carry around my pessermism and poor sense of humour too. If anyone would like to steal these from me, I cycle along St. Helen's Road every Tuesday and Satruday night, side swiping is encouraged. You will spot me by the mop-like hair I have on my head.

I thought you killed your iPhone?

I generally just carry my keys, phone, wallet and bus pass. And a book, if I happen to be reading anything.

The butterfly knife would probably get you arrested here, Mr Spy.

I usually carry my keys, wallet, P2 mp3 player, and mobile phone.

On rare occasions I'll bundle my laptop with his power cables into his travel case and take him with me, but those are very rare cases, only ever to places I feel safe and comfortable taking him.

Usually only my keys, watch, wallet, between 5 and 8 multi-tools, and if I'm going to school (which is my main reason to leave my house), my 40 pound bag of holding (Locker? I don't need no stinkin' locker!).

I did the exact same thing, I didn't want to pay 5$ to have a locker for a year so I dragged everything with me. Used to have fun watching the wiggers struggle to pick up my bag just to have me lift it with one arm.

...because you stated the brand and model of your camera; can't guess what I've already been told. :P

But basically, I'd just carry Sable around - he's got everything I need. ;)

Seriously, I'm pretty spartan; 'two feet and a heartbeat.'

ID, currency, keys, timepiece, and sufficient clothes to keep me from getting sunstroke, hypothermia or arrested.

Nonetheless, I can see your requirements for your stuff.
