Travel racket with tripod? Or a one-horned frame?

It's best to bring a tripod for rigorous practice, especially shooting scenery films, which can keep the camera stable for a long time.

If it's a travel shoot, it's just a way to play and shoot, and the equipment itself should be light! The tripod is a bit heavy. I think monopod is better!

However, travel shooting is also divided into videos or photos. In the case of photos, the relationship between tripods is very stable, and you can shoot magical scenery such as night scenes, but if you don't shoot night scenes, tripods or monopods are redundant. Just prepare the fuselage and lens!

I always think that the subject is going on a video tour, and it is not recommended to use a tripod for video tour shooting. A tripod can only be shot in a fixed place. If you need to change places, you need to move around, which is very troublesome! Not as convenient as a monopod! Many video shooting teams are either electronic stabilizers or monopod shooting. Although the monopod looks not so stable, it can also ensure the stability of the picture when relying on the body!

Hello, there are many kinds of travel photography. And in the field of professional photographers, travel refers to traveling to shoot portraits, right? It seems that traveling is not just about taking pictures of scenery and people.

If the main purpose is to shoot scenery, then a tripod is definitely essential.

In fact, Octopus is an essential tool for travel.

Let me give you a general answer to your question:

1. What is the general answer?

2. Travel photography of landscape photographers and landscape photographers is also a kind of travel photography.

1 and 2 are the same thing.

Second, if you just go downtown, this kind of sightseeing.

Personally, I think it's good to bring an octopus.

There is no need to bring a tripod and a monopod.

Octopus is really the best.

Sometimes, I have to bring some octopus.

Third, if it is a purposeful shooting of the night view of the city,

This kind, you'd better bring a tripod.

As for the specific tripod, it depends on what kind of city night scene you took.

Fourth, if there is a clear purpose of shooting natural scenery,

This one also needs a tripod.

Especially the specialized landscape photography tour group.

In short, the monopod is actually useless now.

In the early years, anti-shake was not good, high sense was not good, and monopod was really useful.

However, today's digital cameras or lenses have good anti-shake and high sensitivity. To be honest, the monopod has really been eliminated.

However, if you do buy a 70-200mm lens without image stabilization, then a monopod is still useful.

To answer this question, we must first find out what functions tripods and monopods have.

A tripod, as its name implies, can stand firmly somewhere and take the shot you want; You can also delay filming yourself. In addition, it is unique for people who shoot alone and need to make videos.

Monopod, the fixing function is naturally not as good as tripod, but it is easy to hold the racket when walking (preferably with stabilizer), and the monopod with telescopic rod is also easy to carry. Therefore, personally, it is more convenient to bring a monopod if you don't plan to make a video when traveling.

Comments are welcome on the above views.

As a photographer, I think I should bring a tripod.

Video shooting is stable, no jitter, and easy to carry.

Monopod personally feels that the video will be a little shaky.

Each has his own merits? The stability of tripod is inconvenient when shooting video and moving.

It is very convenient to move when shooting video with a monopod.

Each has its own merits, depending on where you have been. If you need to shoot for a long time, bring a tripod. No, take all the suggestions.

Travel photography is mainly based on light, of course, it depends on what kind of equipment you use. It would be nice to print a monopod. You can understand that if it is a micro-single, it can be used as a tripod when it is opened below.

Hello, landlord!

Let me share my personal experience. For travel photography, it is very important to make the equipment as portable as possible, if you don't go to road trip or have very good physical fitness. In this respect, a monopod made of the same material is definitely better than a tripod (except mini). It can be used as a crutch after climbing a mountain, but it is not as stable as a tripod.

In the process of traveling, if you are holding a SLR, and it is a one-digit flagship level, it is very easy to use it as an auxiliary bracket to shoot regular recording pictures in the case of sufficient light, especially when you use a telephoto lens, which is easier than holding it all the time and can greatly improve the film yield. But when you want to take creative pictures with slow exposure or take solid color pictures at night with low sensitivity, the disadvantages of monopod are extremely prominent, and the advantages of tripod are reflected. If you bring a light single, I personally tested the slow door with a monopod, using the same light wide angle and header, but the shooting rate is not high. It's crazy to use a slightly larger lens or telephoto lens with a micro-single!

To sum up, personal habits are:

Monopod-used for meeting follow-up, banquet follow-up, party follow-up, landscape shooting without slow door creation (high-sensitivity shooting at night), which emphasizes flexibility. A monopod with three supports at the lower part can be divided into three small ones, which can be used on platforms such as rocks and railings, but it is still limited in some circumstances. )

Tripod-landscape shooting (sun scene, night scene, slow door), macro, must be taken when shooting goods.

I hope some of my experience can be used as a reference for the landlord!

I hope my answer is helpful to you.

In fact, there are not many opportunities to really use tripods in travel.

There are two reasons: first, during the tourist season, the scenic spots are crowded and the schedule is tight, so it is impossible to give full play to the advantages of tripod without enough time and space. Second, in many cases, it is not suitable to use a tripod, such as on a hillside, on water or on the move. At this time, the tripod can only become a burden and a burden.

In contrast, a monopod is much lighter and more practical, but most people don't have a monopod. According to my experience, I just need to bring a mini tripod, spend a few dollars to buy the cheapest crutch after going to the scenic spot, and fix the tripod on the handle of the crutch, and it becomes a simple monopod. When you want to use crutches, press them on the ground, rocks or other objects, and you can shoot smoothly. In addition, all equipment should be operated according to procedures before departure to ensure that they can work normally.
