[quote=JJASC,240722]I'm going to china for three weeks and will be visiting the following cities: Hong Kong, Shenzen, Beijing, Shanghai, Hanzhou, Guangzhou, Guilin, Yangasho. I'm a serious amature photographer and will be bringing about 5 thousand dollars of camera equipment (all stuffed into a vey very small camera backpack). The lenses, filters, accessories and Digital SLR camera will all be in the backpack, but my $800 carbon fiber tripod will be attached to the back of the backpack. I'm a mite concerned with theft. The camera alone is probably worth more than many people make in a year there. Do many chinese people have Digital SLR cameras? Perhaps they are common as dirt there. I really hope lots do because I don't want to stand out too much with my DLSR camera. I'm also worried that if I set up my tripod, attach my DSLR with all the filters, hoods, etc, I will get mobbed by curious people. DO you guys have any comments on this? [/quote]
