Around Friday early afternoon, I lost a bag with expensive camera equipment inside it as well as my laptop.
Some troll is gunna reply with "why did you even have all that stuff with you? It was expected you're gunna get it stolen" and I'm expecting that line to eventually pop up, but as a photographer, I required all that equipment for my shoots that entire day. I had to cancel all my shoots which was very saddening for me and many cosplayers.

The bag was a grey messenger bag with a half-way ripped shoulder pad on the strap the interior was blue with 2 pockets and multiple (3x) slots in the main compartment. both front and back of the bag had zipper compartments. If anyone has seen this kind of bag, knows who had/have it, please send them my direction, PM me or contact me in any way shape or form. I'll leave my phone number here for convenience purposes.

What I had in that bag was as follows:

Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 Af version
Nikon 50mm f/1.8 AF-S
Nikon SB-600 external flash
Sandisk Compact Flash Extreme II 4gb memory card
Flashwave III Wireless reciever
Fotoix Softbox
Multiple flash diffusers and gels

Macbook Black Edition
Macbook charger
Blackberry charger

and a dress vest.

That really seems like a whole lot.
Like, really, a whole lot.
I don't think I've seen it at all.
This was my first year as staff, and I worked Customer Service.
I've worked lost and found, and I've seen the lost and found box a couple times.
We've even moved all the lost and found items we had left after the con was over.
And I don't believe it was in there.
I apologize we couldn't find it.
Hopefully it'll turn up.

Also, I do understand the need to bring such expensive gear.
Especially if you're one of the photographers in charge of the photoshoots.
(After all, without "the" photographer, we can't have a somewhat organized photoshoot.)
