My Last MOJO

My MOJOYes. MOJO. Mobile Journalism Kit, whatever. I’ve had multiple ones over the years. This picture is the one I’ve been traveling with for many years of late. I’ve actually worn one of them out and replaced it by Think Tank Photo. But before then I had a larger one for two camera bodies and multiple lens. That was back in the days of shooting pics at INDYCAR and NASCAR races. I’ve shared lists of all my gear several times. But, I’m not going to do a comprehensive one now, but you can see a few key items that I’ve focused on in the last years.

First is my Nikon Zf mirrorless camera body with a Nikkor Z 24-200 lens. It’s my 2nd mirrorless camera and I keep learning more. I’ve got a Nikon Speedlight SB-700 and a Peak Design sliding strap. Then there is the Golden ZimmComm Microphone (Heil PR-20 – yes, it’s gold) and Zoom H4n Pro recorder. I use an old Sony PCM-M10 recorder only to record from sound mixers and mult boxes like general sessions, etc. They don’t make them anymore! I can’t leave out my iPhone 15 Pro because it shoots incredible photos and movies. And I can’t do anything without my MacBook Pro 14-inch. Oh, and of course, multiple adapters, battery chargers and cords and memory cards

Of course there are the ZimmComm Golden Mic Club membership cards!!

Here’s what my MOJO looked like in 2010.

So, my work at the AgGateway Annual Conference this month was my last one of the year and as we’ve announced, we will not be continuing this on-site work again. I can’t thank enough all the clients we’ve worked with in all kinds of venues, states and countries. I’ve made great friends and I couldn’t have learned what I have without so many people.
