Hi all. I'm a photographer using my bike in the S Fort Worth area for both getting out to find interesting photos and doing bike/owner portraits.
Well never really thought Id say this but on my bike its my old Medium format gear. IF I were to crash, it can be replaced far cheaper than the digital stuff. I still use film too sometimes, but mostly b&w when I do. The digital body is a Canon 50D with and most of the time it has either a 28 80 2.8-4.0L or an 80 200 2.8L on the front of it. At about a grand a piece for the lenses, I can't take the chance of a car pulling out in front of me when riding.Welcome to the forum. What are you using for photography? I'm using a Sony Alpha 330 with a bunch of Minolta lenses I had left over from film photogrpahy back in the mid 90's.
You should stop in to City Cyclist on McCart; they have several different recumbents on the floor. If nothing else, you could get ideas. You could probably have an interesting conversation with Mike (the head mechanic there); he's pretty knowledgeable about recumbents. If you see someone that looks like this riding around,In the future I want to build both a recumbent and a trailer. One is a trailer that will double as a cot and can have a cover over it. Its the bikers RV. The long term goal is to do some touring.
