Really expensive photography gear was stolen from the photographers’ room at Hungaroring this weekend. The victims filed charges against the unknown perpetrator and police started the investigation. You however take it as a reminder to always be on alert for your gear to never suffer similar losses!

You cannot imagine it how many cases this can help you out of trouble if you have your name on your belongings. It is a crazy simple solution that can save you from great losses!

Werk photo from the bathroom after a rainy match. This is how the gear of AFP photographer in Budapest Attila Kisbenedek is being dried after geetting soaked. He is currently covering the FIFA World Cup. Other than his official poctures published by the agency on his Instagram feed he lets a peek into his bathroom.

During a travel on a field work photojournalist Warren Richardson’s gear was stolen. He turned to people of Facebook and the Internet to help him recover his gear. Try to help him and the meanwhile take good care of your own belongings.

I have more than one friends in Kiev covering the dedicated fight of the ukranians. Their work is getting more like war photography than general reportage. Photographers as well have a hard time in the civil war like situation.

Paparazzis aren’t the most celebrated individuals in the wide world of photography, but their work is still interesting and professionally challenging, to say the least. Let’s see what a paparazzo carries in his bag and how he thinks about his gear and his work.

Probably there are some who are bored to hear this again and again, but this advice can spare people terrible headaches! There has been another theft, that could have been avoided. Photographers share the list of stolen goods in hope of someone finding it one day. Hope is good, but prevention is much more helpful than crying after something avoidable bad happened.
I hope you don’t leave valuable gear in the car!

As it could be expected, after a few days of active workout (daily 14-16 hours almost without any break) of weight camera lifting I have my muscles in shape – not as good a shape as on the picture here. This one was taken at a body building competition.
