The Disabled Photographers' Society has a packed stand at this year's Photography & Video Show full of brilliant secondhand bargains. The charity has been building up donations of unwanted photographic kit for over a year, ready for this giant photographic jumble saleOffers we saw in previous shows included offers on memory cards, forests of old tripods, stacks of darkroom processing trays, and masses of great camera memorabilia from both the film and digital eras alike.I have found some great treasures on this stand in the last decade since the Show began. A giant professional Poloroid camera once designed for taking passport photos sits on my shelf at home – and my £300 Sony A6000 with zoom, is often in my backpack as my affordable alternative to the trendy Fujifilm X100VI.But it is not just about buying - the stand is also about giving. Every year I take carrier bag or two of books, accessories and other photographic bits and bobs I no longer need for the charity to sell at the Show.Why not do your bit for this great charity by bringing your own donations to the show? Simply look out any bits of unwanted photo gear you have around the house and bring it with you. You can then drop it off at the Disabled Photographers' Society's stand when you arrive at the NEC.
