Purchase of photographic equipment

Now is a good season for traveling in mid-late autumn, and many friends can’t help but want to go out for a walk. Of course, it is indispensable to bring a digital camera (hereinafter referred to as DC) when traveling to record the beautiful scenery along the way. So how can you better protect your phone when traveling with it and take more and better photos? Come and see what we all need.

Photography bag

I believe that friends with DC will have a camera bag, but many of my friends’ camera bags are portable and can just fit the camera. Portability is not the main consideration when traveling. Protection and waterproofing are very important, because bumps and bumps are inevitable when traveling, and you cannot accurately predict the weather (such as rain). In addition, the capacity of the camera bag should be larger to accommodate commonly used accessories, such as tripods and chargers.

Lens hood

When taking photos outdoors in the sun, bright sunlight can sometimes have a negative effect and produce annoying glare. Installing a lens hood in front of the lens can effectively prevent glare. In addition, it can also protect the lens from being bumped and wet by water. There are two types of lens hoods, one is a lotus-shaped plastic cover, and the other is a round rubber cover. The lotus cover is better and less likely to produce dark shadows at the wide-angle end. In addition, with the Lotus cover installed, the whole machine looks much cooler.

Lightweight Tripod

Maybe you already have a good tripod, but you definitely don’t want it to become a burden when traveling. Then we need a lightweight tripod. . It is only about 24cm when shrunk, which is very light and can be placed in a camera bag, but it is 120cm when extended. Although not as stable as a large tripod, it is enough for general use. Also, buying a monopod is also a good choice.

Polarizing filter

When traveling, we saw many beautiful fish in the water, but the reflection on the water made it impossible for us to take pictures of them clearly; when taking pictures of landscapes The blue sky and white clouds always feel gray. This is the danger of polarized light. Using a polarizer can effectively solve these problems. With it, you can see the truly pure blue sky and white clouds. Polarizers can be divided into two types, linear polarization (PL) and circular polarization (CPL). Their functions are basically the same, but cameras with AF (auto focus)/AE (automatic metering) functions are best to use CPL. .

Digital Camera Companion

If you travel for a long time and see so many beautiful scenery, even if you use a 512MB memory card, it is not enough, and DC cannot Change film like a traditional camera and bring a laptop? Too bulky. At this time we need a digital camera companion. They generally have a capacity of more than 10GB and support reading from various memory cards. When the DC memory card is full, we use a digital camera companion to back up the photos on the card, so that we can continue taking pictures and no longer have to worry about missing the beautiful scenery.

Some digital camera companions also have a color LCD screen, which can be used to play back photos
