Detroit photographer 'Camera Jesus' asks for help locating stolen gear

DETROIT -- (WXYZ) -- One of Detroit's most talented photographers, Camera Jesus (Joe Gall), is asking for your help after someone stole his camera bag filled with gear.

Gall posted on the Camera Jesus Facebook page that his Think Tank bag includes:

Canon 5Ds camera bodyCanon 70-200mm 2.8 lensCanon 24-70mm 2.8 lensCanon11-24mm 4.0Canon 100mm 2.8 MacroCanon 35mm 1.4 and moreThe break-in happened just near downtown Detroit while he was planning out his next project.

In broad daylight, on the corner of Fisher and 3rd just outside of the Detroit Antique Mall across from Cass Tech High School, someone busted Gall's car windows and took his camera bag, containing $15,000 worth of equipment he uses to showcase the city he loves.

While he says he knows better than to leave his camera gear in the back seat, he didn't plan on being long.
