When on a shoot, besides your camera, what 3 things do you always carry?
I will go first:
(1) extra battery
(2) extra memory
(3) lens cleaning cloth
El, Bebu,
So what do you carry?
It depends:
Shoots with long heavy lenses (motor sport or birding) -
A monopod
Wet weather protection for me and my camera
Water, and sun protection, if shooting in summer.
Dawn shoots -
ND grad filters
Tripod and a remote release.
Torch.
Shoots for other people -
Backup camera and lenses.
For local shoots, just for myself.
Just a bag to put the camera in.
Usually there will be a "protection" filter (just in case), lens cleaning cloth and spare card & battery).

Only 3? Seriously.
To the above, add:
Filers, screw on and rectangular
Flashlight (never leave home without one)
Multitool
Allen wrench set
Remote release
Headcover
Lip balm
Water.
Extra battery, extra memory card, monopod or window rest.
It depends on what and where I'm shooting.
Sometimes just the camera and spare card wallet and battery.
Sometimes the bag, if I take it, stays in the car.
Sometimes a bag for the whole outing.
Always in the bag: a 50mm; filters/wrenches; angle finder; lens cleaner; remote release; note pad/pen; spare batteries; card wallet; & probably some other stuff. (I have a red/white headband light, but that only gets packed if I'm going out at night.)

Camera, lens, sometimes more lenses, battery and memory card are what's in the camera,
If I go on a long trip. I bring a flash, a surface pro with memory card and the battery charger.
I have nothing extra.

The extra camera has a battery and memory card in it. Since Nikon uses the same battery in most of my cameras it's gotten easier.
