Hi all,
On the night of Boxing Day 2009 I accidently left my camera bag containing most of my equipment on the road while loading my car up and drove off without realising. I have only realised this tonight after I wanted to use them! I am so gutted!

My gear was left near the end of Millen Road, Pakuranga, Auckland. It's at the end of a dead end street.

All my gear is in mint condition and hopefully some of you guys may see it pop up on TradeMe.

My gear was all in a grey Dakine Mission Camera Backpack similar to this:

Contents:
- 2x Cactus KF36 flashes (the rebrand of Vivitar 285)
- 1x Canon EF 50mm f/1.8
- 1x Cactus V4 wireless transmitter
- 1x Cactus KF36 gel set
- 2x Cactus V4 wireless receivers
- 1x Yongnuo YN-126 wireless shutter release
- 2x Yongnuo ballhead flash umbrella holders
- 16x Energizer rechargeable batteries

The Cactus KF26 flash is not too common here so if any used ones pop up for sale let me know.

I’m offering a cash reward to anyone who has info leading to the recovery of my items. Please pass this onto your other photographer friends.

Contact me on 021 1874101
Cheers,
Talan

Good news! I have recovered my equipment.

To cut a long story short, a friend picked it up, went away, didn't tell anyone he had it until another friend was talking to him about it.

Everyone, remember to put some contact details in your gear bags, just incase you lose them!
