Believe it or not photography is a laborious trade, definitely not as easy as some people think.
Connoisseurs of the business understand that in order to achieve a shoot one most be ready to deal with unforeseen circumstances that can hinder the process of the assignment or the task at hand. And in order to be most effective you have to learn how to work smarter, not harder. This includes avoiding needless physical labor and learn how to buy equipment that will make your life easier and effortless.
I myself have paid the price of injury and physical agony after neglecting and failing to recognize that lenses, stands or sand bags do add up and can easily turn into a hefty load to handle, especially when it comes to transporting equipment while shooting on location. So do yourself a favor and get yourself some wheels.
One of these folding trucks did the trick for me.
