The Non-Gun Owner’s Guide To Gun Gifts

There were times during my career as a professional photographer where I’d have to smile politely and thank a relative for their Christmas gift of a dozen rolls of 24 exposure color negative film.

“Kevin’s a photographer,” they’d think to themselves, “and photographers can always use more film, right?”

Well, yes, in theory. However, I would shoot, at best, 3 rolls of film for color prints each year, while going through enough Fujichrome transparency film every month to give our UPS driver a hernia.

That’s because specialized professions require specialized gear, and specialized hobbies do as well.
