Yes, I know this is totally cliché, but I always get a kick out of seeing how much crap photographers lug around. Here's what I'm usually carrying when I'm out taking photos (don't mug me please).

I don't use a proper camera bag unless I'm shooting sports and am able to leave it in the press box. I find it easier to just toss everything in a backpack and go.
I hardly ever use the GoPro, but I should start.
When I don't want to carry all this I just take the Vivtar or the 5D with the Sigma 35mm.
