Being Nimble in San Francisco

I have a great workday lined up.

My first stop will be at Joby HQ in San Francisco (yes, the makers of the wildly cool Gorillapod). I'm in meetings there for a couple hours. They're a terrific group to hang out with... very creative and passionate about photography.

Then I have a couple hours free for street shooting in the city. I'm on foot all day or using public transportation, so I'm sure I'll see plenty of stuff to photograph. I'll be testing the new Olympus OM-D E-M10 micro four thirds camera with the very fun 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ zoom and auto lens cap.

I posted a short video of this tandem in operation on The Digital Story. It's definitely worth a look!

After that, I'm attending a Samsung Press Event down on the Embarcadero. There's a NDA meeting and reception, so I'm sure it will be enjoyable. (I'll probably keep my Olympus out of sight then.)

I'll leave the press event around 7pm and take BART over to Oracle Arena and catch the Warriors playing the Bucks tonight. Great way to finish off the day.

I'll have my camera and a couple lenses, plus the iPad mini and some accessories, in my Walking Man Shoulder bag. Such a nimble combination. I'll have everything I need with me, yet I'll be light on my feet and won't be attracting any attention.

At least not with my bag.
