I have hesitated for a while now to start this thread. It is NOT intended to be a bragging thread, who has the most lenses and the sort. No, I am genuinely interested to pick up a few ideas of how to organize my cupboard better!!
Most of us have bits and pieces from decades of collecting stuff and I wonder how people store everything. There are ‘bag-threads’ but I have not seen any ‘cupboard-threads’.
In my particular case, I have sold a lot the past few years of my old stuff. Only keeping a few items too close to my heart to give up. My Olympus OM2 with the amazing Zuiko 21/2 lens which is rare I cannot let go. The beautiful Contax G1 with the 45 + 90 I must keep. And of course the GX680III with 65 + 150 + 250 is also a difficult to part with system. (not in the image, but I also have a 500CM + 80) But I have sold half a dozen other bodies and more than a dozen lenses the past 3-4 years.
On top of this I experienced a nasty burglary 6 months ago, where I lost 4 tech lenses and 2 digital backs. A huge blow and another reason to slimline and only go for stuff I really need.
With all this said, I still struggle to have a smart organisation for what I have!!! So, it would be great to see how you store all your hoods, extensions, plates, adaptors, filters, bits & bobs etc ??
I have another place (wardrobe) for my lights (Profoto), all tripods and all bags.
If you don’t mind, please do share how you organize all your stuff!
Sorry for bad mobile shot...
