14 Must-Have Travel Gadgets for your Photography Packing List
Our top recommendation for your photography packing list. This is the same crystal that is used for camera lenses and other optics because of its extremely high light transmittance and light-refracting characteristics. Lensball is made for beginners as well as for professional photographers. To make this accessible for all levels of photography, Lensball does not only work with professional cameras but it is also suited for any smartphone camera. Get unique shots from your next adventure 🙂
Do you know what Gorillapod is? It is a very flexible camera stand. Grip it. Wrap it. Stand it. Wrappable legs allow you to secure professional camera equipment to virtually any surface. Over two dozen leg joints with rubberized ring and foot grips allow you to bend and rotate 360 Degree for increased stability in difficult terrain. Perfect for long exposure and night photography.
Camera bags are uncomfortable and often space-consuming. With this practical camera backpack, not only is your camera equipment perfectly stowed away, but you also have enough room for other items (e.g. snacks for a picnic 😉 ). Furthermore, this backpack is especially theft-proof and at the same time allows quick access for you. My favorite photography gadget when packing for my next trip 🙂
You don’t want to wear a backpack all the time and need a premium quick-release camera strap? Here is your best choice. Thanks to ultralight padding, this comfortable camera strap feels like it’s barely there, and best it comfortably fits all photographers (even tall ones). Be sure to check it out and add it to your packing list.
5. Adjustable Protective Camera Wrap
One more gadget for your photography packing list is this adjustable protective camera wrap. With this fashionable and convenient protective wrap, you won’t have to carry a bulky camera case all the time. Not only the protective wrap is designed for DSLR cameras, but it could also be used for other electronics such as a laptop, tablet computer, zoom lens, and more.
The all-new Capture is the most secure, convenient, accessible way to carry your camera, period. Unlike a camera strap, Capture keeps your camera rigidly stable while hiking, biking, or moving around the studio. Unlike a camera bag, Capture keeps your camera instantly accessible with the click of a button. We love this practical little Clip 🙂
7. Cleaning Kit for DSLR Cameras
The Cleaning Kit contains everything to keep your DSLR camera clean and in perfect working condition, inside and out. Sensor cleaning and maintenance is one of the most important, and most overlooked, aspects of camera ownership. Overlook it, and you’ll soon find yourself dealing with annoying specs showing up in your images. This is an optional gadget for your photography packing list, but we highly recommend to have it at home 🙂
