uriah Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Bullet proof vest, oh, and a wide angle zoom and tele zoom. Maybe a flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anthony_r Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Zoom. You aren't going to be able to get real close to the action I would imagine. Flash for sure in case you get to use it - would stink not to have it and need it and you may want to get portraits of the men in blue outside the action when nothing is going on. (Although in the Bronx at night it'll probably be pretty busy). I'd wear a vest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanky Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I have a couple close buddies who are LAPD. I've been thinking of doing the same. Maybe some day when I get a handle on using my flash. Those all-nite donut shops can get pretty dark for my Pan F+ ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
