At the request of several people lately, I’m posting what’s in my MOJO. I haven’t done this for a couple of years. You read the last post and compare what’s different. So here’s what’s in my MOJO (mobile journalism kit).

Big Mac – 17″ Macbook Pro
HP Mini 311 – Netbook
Apple iPhone 3GS
Nikon D300 D-SLR
Nikon SB-900 – Flash
Nikon 18-200mm VRII – Not pictured but included are: 70-200mm VR f2.8, 17-55mm f2.8, Sigma 10-20mm
Canon HG20 HD Video Camera – Kit includes Azden Shotgun Mic and Audio Technica Lav Mic
Kodak Z18 – Video Camera
Canon SD100 IS – Point/Shoot
Edirol R-09 – Digital Audio Recorder
Sony PCM-M10 – Digital Audio Recorder

LowePro Nova 170 AW camera bag
Verizon MiFi – mobile hotspot
AT&T Laptop Connect Card
Sennheiser PCB 141 – USB headset microphone

Not pictured items include:

Manfrotto self standing monopod 682B
Zacuto Zgrip iPhone Jr. #Z-ZG-IPJ – mounts on tripod/monopod
Many assorted microphone cables, battery chargers, rechargeable AA batteries, lens cloths, memory cards, memory card reader, mini tripod, full size Manfrotto tripod, USB memory sticks, Seagate Free Agent 500GB external hard drive, Lynksys WRT54GC 4 port wireless router, Flip Mino HD and Marantz PMD620 digital audio recorder.

Now I don’t carry all this gear with me on all trips. I generally configure my pack according to what I’m going to need to do while on location. Having these items gives me lots of options and backups. For example, with an app like Speakeasy on my iPhone I can and do conduct high quality interviews without even having to use a special digital audio recorder. I’m sure you’re now going to ask what software I use. Okay, here’s a partial list that doesn’t include other apps I use on my iPhone:

Adobe Soundbooth CS4 – edit audio
Adobe Photoshop Elements – edit photos
Final Cut Express – edit video
iMovie – edit video
Transmit – FTP software to upload stuff
WordPress – the only name you need to know in blogging

I also use countless web apps for all kinds of things like Twitpic for Twitter, etc.
