My Multimedia Kit

My professional life feels like backpacking on the British and Irish Isles. I carry the complete NOS London Bureau along when I travel around, looking for stories. The whole shebang fits in a backpack (Portabrace) plus a handbag. So what’s in it? See for yourself.

Digital Photo Camera Sony Cybershot 5.1 megapixels
