Travel Photography Gear Review Tuesday
Edmonton, Alberta

Greetings all,

I thought today I would share a bit of a review of some of the gear we traveled with. The following video is pretty long, so unless you're a photographer or someone seriously interested in how we traveled with our equipment then I might suggest passing over this one!

 

 

 

 

 

A couple extras:

- One thing we took with us that was essential was a rocket blower and a great microfiber towel. Using your gear on a daily basis means it gets dirty fast (especially in India) and you need the tools to make sure everything stays clean.

 

- Those WD pocket drives are from Western Digital. The apple sticker on it was just something I threw on so that I could distinguish between all the drives.

 

- We did take a remote release cord which is pretty much essential when working with the tripod or gorillapod-- nobody likes waiting for the 2-10 second timer!

 

- We also took a couple demb flash diffusers with us which we sometimes use for indoor flash work.

 

If you have traveled with your gear, I would love to know what you felt was the most important piece of gear you brought with you. Also if you haven't traveled with your gear, what do you think would be the best thing to take? When we left on this trip I thought I had everything perfectly figured out, but after being gone for so long I realize that there must be a ton of great ways to travel with your gear. Leave a comment or send me an e-mail!

 

Cheers,

Rob
