Sat. August 24: Great Gear & Gadgets Sale

This event is open to the public and takes place outdoors, in the Village – an easy walk from the Gabriola ferry terminal for anyone coming from Nanaimo as a foot passenger.

We’ll have a wide variety of lightly-used photographic equipment on offer, in exchange for a donation to Gabriola Photography Club. Hope to see you there!

“Gear & Gadgets Galore” Fundraising Sale, May 4

Paid-up members of Gabriola Photography Club will have the opportunity to attend a members-only portion of the sale between 10 am and noon.

Studio Lighting Equipment on Offer

A longtime Club member is generously donating his collection of studio lighting equipment to our Club as a fundraiser. What’s included:

  • 2 light stands
  • 2 photo flood reflectors
  • 4 incandescent bulbs
  • 1 large tripod with extension boom & balance weight
  • 1 soft box with diffusion filter
  • 2 umbrella reflectors
  • all relevant hardware
  • 1 Nikon SB 600 Speedlite

Please note, this needs to go as a collection, not as individual items, and will need to be picked up from the donor’s home on Gabriola Island. From a quick search through eBay, we estimated the value of the collection at about $500+. Photos of a few of the items on offer appear below.

If you would like to offer a suitable donation to Gabriola Photography Club for this collection please let us know as soon as possible.
