What are the accessories for digital cameras? How to buy without being cheated?

Purchasing strategy of digital camera accessories 1. Digital video tape

Travel photography must bring digital video tapes. At present, the main digital video tapes on the market are Sony, Panasonic, JVC and TDK, and the actual use effect is similar. It is recommended to buy a video tape of the same brand as your own digital camera, because some functions of a certain brand of video tape can only be used on that brand of digital camera. For example, Sony's digital video tape with memory function can only play a role in Sony's digital camera.

You'd better take more digital video tapes when traveling, so you can shoot if you want, and you don't have to panic when you run out of tapes. It is suggested not to go to tourist attractions again, because the prices there are outrageous, and the quality of videos sold in tourist attractions is generally not guaranteed, and there are many fakes.

Second, the camera bag

When traveling abroad, you must bring a camera bag, big or small. You'd better take a small bag when traveling, which is lighter.

At present, the real original camera bag on the market is really rare and the price is surprisingly high. So, if you are short of money, you don't have to buy a brand-name camera bag. Pay attention to the workmanship of the bag when choosing. A qualified camera bag should have a thick sponge layer on all sides, so as to ensure that your machine is not afraid of bumping and squeezing, as well as an adjustable partition and pockets for various accessories, preferably slightly larger, so as not to let the contents in.

Third, chargers and batteries.

Just bring a random charger. If possible, you can buy an original fast charger, which can save you a lot of time. For example, Panasonic's charger AD9E has fast charging function! Shooting 1 hour only takes 15 minutes, which is very useful when you are in a hurry to go out or shoot.

Generally speaking, the lithium-ion battery attached to a digital camera can only guarantee shooting at around 1 hour. When traveling, if you play outside for a long time, there may be no suitable place to charge the battery, so you have to watch the scenery and sigh. At this time, it is necessary to equip the digital camera with a second lithium battery.

Among all the accessories of digital cameras, the fake and shoddy sales of lithium batteries are the most serious, because its illegal profits are the highest. At present, there are many counterfeit lithium battery products in the domestic market. Real battery refers to the original battery produced by the manufacturer, with excellent quality and absolute guarantee of service life. Fake batteries use defective batteries, which have poor performance, short service life, no guarantee of service life and may be damaged at any time. The internal protection circuit of inferior and counterfeit lithium batteries is usually modified or omitted, which is prone to short circuit, liquid leakage and even explosion, and the actual working time is much shorter than the real one. Some fake batteries work well for the first time, but their performance will drop sharply after several charges.

We can identify the true and false lithium batteries by the following methods: Generally speaking, the handwriting on the logo of the real battery is relatively clear and the strokes are relatively uniform, while the handwriting on the logo of the fake battery is somewhat vague; Because lithium is the lightest non-gaseous metal substance in nature, the weight of lithium-ion batteries is lighter, while the weight of counterfeit lithium-ion batteries is sometimes heavier; The internal components of the real battery are well fixed, and there is no shaking feeling when shaking the battery, while the fake battery will have a slight shaking feeling when shaking by hand.

Although buying a fake battery may be cheap for a while, the consequences it brings are immeasurable. Major companies have also issued statements that they are not responsible for all the consequences caused by the use of counterfeit lithium batteries, so we suggest that you still buy original lithium batteries and recommend several large-capacity batteries for your reference.

Panasonic D54S battery: The battery capacity is 5400MAH, and D54S can be used for all vehicles that can use batteries, such as D 16S, especially those that consume more electricity, such as DVC 180. At present, the domestic market price is about 1.5 million yuan.

Sony QM7 1D battery: power 2760MAH, service time 390 minutes. At present, the domestic market price is around 700 yuan;

To be fair, the original lithium battery is good, but the price is very expensive. Many friends feel that they can afford a horse but not a saddle. At present, domestic lithium-ion batteries for digital cameras have begun to compete with the original batteries with excellent product quality, reasonable product price and complete product categories. The products of some regular domestic manufacturers have passed the product quality certification and CE certification of the Battery Quality Supervision and Testing Center of China National Light Industry Federation, so you may wish to consider the cheap domestic lithium-ion batteries for digital cameras and recommend two models for your reference.

Ruineng R-SDU2 1 lithium ion battery: the capacity is 2040mAh and the voltage is 7.2V It is compatible with Panasonic CGA-DU2 1 lithium ion battery and Panasonic GS30/GS50/DS70EN digital camera. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is around 500 yuan.

Ruineng R-SM7 1 lithium ion battery: the capacity is 2600mAh and the voltage is 7.2V It is compatible with Sony's NP-FQ7 1 lithium ion battery and Sony's DCR-TRV20E/ 15E/25E/27E digital camera. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is around 600 yuan.

4. Wide-angle lens and extended-range lens:

Because the wide-angle field of view of digital camera lens is relatively narrow, which is generally equivalent to 45? About 50 mm, due to the special needs of dynamic shooting, general digital cameras have external lens accessories with extended distance or wide angle, which can be used as a useful supplement to the original lens. When shooting, sometimes even if you lean back or squat down to shoot, you can't shoot all the characters into the picture, probably because of the position limitation, but the wide-angle lens can enlarge the shooting range. When the shooting range is large and the photographer can't retreat, a wider range can be shot after installing a wide-angle lens, and a wider angle can be shot in narrow rooms and places with limited traffic. The extended-range mirror is also called a magnifying glass. When a digital camera is equipped with an extended-range lens, it can shoot a farther scene or enlarge the shot scene in the picture without losing the image quality.

At present, Sony and Panasonic are the main brands of digital cameras with extended range or wide-angle lenses sold in the market. The magnification of the available wide-angle lens is 0.7 times, 0.5 times or less than 1 times, while the magnification of the range extender is generally less than 2 times, and the multiplier with higher magnification is not affordable for ordinary people. Today, I recommend two external wide-angle and enlarger lens for your reference.

Sony 0737 advanced wide-angle lens: suitable for 37mm digital cameras, such as the new high-end digital camera HC85E from Sony this year. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is about 65,438 yuan +0.5 million yuan.

Sony 2037 Magnifier: Suitable for digital cameras with a diameter of 37 mm, such as Sony's 3 megapixel digital camera PC330. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is about RMB in 500 yuan.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) photographic lamp

Night scenes are often taken during travel, but the night scene shooting ability of civil digital cameras is really unsatisfactory at present, especially the size of CCD image sensors of major manufacturers has shrunk again this year, which makes the night scene shooting ability even more? Shortage? . Although some models of digital cameras have built-in LED photography lights, such as Panasonic's GS 1 1 and Canon's MVX200i, the effective illumination range of the built-in photography lights is only about 1.5 meters, and the performance of the LED itself is limited, so it is not very helpful to the photography effect in low illumination, far less than the role of external photography lights.

Generally speaking, external photographic lights can be divided into external photographic lights connected to the hot boots of digital cameras and independent external photographic lights. The external photographic lamp does not take up much space and is easy to carry. It is a good choice for ordinary users. Here, I recommend two inexpensive and compact external photographic lamp products for your reference.

Sony HVL-S3D photographic lamp: power about 3W, suitable for Sony digital cameras, such as TRV 15E. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is around 300 yuan.

Panasonic LDR- 10E DC photographic lamp: power is about 10W, with infrared function. At present, the retail price in the domestic market is around 550 yuan.

Six, waterproof clothing

When you travel in wet places such as the seaside, or encounter bad rainstorm weather, we can only pack up the camera equipment quickly instead of getting wet ourselves, but we won't take digital cameras. At this time, a suitable waterproof suit will let you use the camera to shoot different wonderful pictures in rainy days, seaside, lakeside and other places, and at the same time, it will invisibly extend the service life of the camera. At present, there are few waterproof suits in the domestic market, but if you search carefully, you may see some surprising waterproof suits in the digital camera market in some places, which will bring more fun to your journey. Here are two kinds of waterproof clothes for your reference.

Sony LCR-PC2 rain and snow protection suit: suitable for Sony digital cameras such as DCR-PC9, DCR-PC 109, DCR-PC10, DCR-PC 105. Made of special waterproof material, the overall size is about 78? 170? 135mm, the weight is only about 75g, and the retail price is about 600 yuan.

Panasonic VW-SJSGS 400 rain and snow suit: Suitable for Panasonic's latest 3CCD digital camera? Choose NV-GS400, and the retail price is about 6 10 yuan.
