What is the most practical lens combination for travel photography?

The theme of travel photography is nothing more than scenery, humanistic documentary and portrait.

For what kind of lens combination to carry, according to different situations, three kinds of suggestions are given.

1. Take professional travel photography in the form of go on road trip, and the shooting theme needs to take into account more contents. Because it is convenient to use the car, it is equipped with a large lens bag and a portable camera bag. Take a lens with three focal lengths (16-35, 24-70, 70-200), plus fixed-focus lenses such as 14mm, 35mm, 85 mm, etc. If there is a need for field telephoto and bird shooting, you should also bring a telephoto lens.

In actual shooting, according to the needs, replace the suspension head and put other lenses and equipment into the car. Of course, if conditions permit, dual cameras are better equipped.

This is a relatively complete and professional travel equipment. Of course, there are many devices and lenses, which are very heavy and certainly not suitable for other modes of travel besides self-driving.

Second, if the professionalism is not high, travel and shoot casually, and the means of transportation often change, it is possible to travel long distances. It is recommended that lens 24- 105 be matched with lens 50. If you have a wide-angle lens, you can bring it, or forget it. General scenery and portrait themes should be enough.

Third, the quality requirements are good, but not in the form of self-driving, and the equipment should not be too cumbersome and cumbersome. It is suggested that the lens 16-35mm, taking into account the wide-angle scenery and humanistic documentary, with 50mm and 85 mm settings. Of course, without the combination of telephoto lenses, you can't expect shooting themes such as "bird shooting".

Some people will suggest that you must take a 70-200mm lens when shooting outdoors. If it is a short trip, this shot can also be considered; If it is a long-distance trip, a man with good physical strength may be ok, but women really don't recommend it.

In 20 16, I took a 70-200mm lens to shoot in Sri Lanka. At that time, only the excellent performance of this medium telephoto lens in outdoor portrait shooting was considered. It's really miserable to carry such a big guy all the time.

This is from the heart. If you want to bring it, no problem. Find a good little brother to shoot you back.

What is the most practical lens combination for travel photography?

This depends on whether you give priority to scenery or humanities. If it is considered in Dayuan, the scenery is mainly 16-35/2.8 plus 24-70/2.8; 24-70/2.8 based on human nature plus 70-200/2.8. Of course, don't forget to bring a tripod and a cable release.

1. 16-35/2.8 is a sharp weapon for shooting landscapes, especially "big" scenes. It is characterized by a wide range of viewing angles, and a properly exaggerated picture has more visual impact; The imaging is high-quality and natural, and the color reproduction is high, so shooting big scenery is the first choice.

Second, 24-70/2.8 is a sharp weapon for humanities and activities. This lens is very adaptable and can take into account scenery, humanities, character activities and portrait shooting. The deformation of the picture is very small, which is especially suitable for shooting urban scenery and people's activities, and portrait shooting also has a good performance.

Third, 70-200/2.8 is a sharp weapon for people and "small" scenery. It is a sharp weapon for portrait shooting, with long focal length and moderate shooting distance from the person, which will not cause the subject to be stiff and embarrassed. Suitable for shooting big scenes, close-ups and panoramic views. Shooting scenery also has a good performance. If you don't think its angle of view is big enough, you can also take pictures of the natural scenery of the upper-middle scene.

Whether to use the combination of depth samples depends mainly on the main content and personal preferences of the trip, and cannot be treated absolutely.

Travel should be about shooting while playing, and recording the distinctive contents of the places you have been. This requires that the lighter the personal load, the better, so as to have fun. If you can't stand the heavy things you bring, how can you travel and shoot?

Suggestion: Choose photographic equipment according to your travel purpose. If you go to the African prairie, it is recommended to bring a telephoto; For scenic spots, 16-35 or 24-70: For places with strong cultural atmosphere, it is recommended to take 24 or 35.

18 - 200; 24 - 240

These are my usual equipment. Let's take a group photo first. The long journey, who doesn't want to be a blockbuster all the way, leaving it for their own taste and memories in the future? Of course, in terms of equipment, we should not be careless. It is said that mobile phones can also be a blockbuster, which is for the well-being of the broad masses of the people, not for the pursuit of perfection!

Travel photography, inbreeding! Far attack! How can I put it? Because we have to constantly change the fresh shooting environment, we should try to quickly switch between close-range shooting and telephoto shooting, so as not to miss some fleeting beauty, those people and things on the journey!

So I personally use two cameras and two mirrors, 5d3+a7r3, lens 35 1.4+70-200 2.8. This lens combination can be quickly switched when I try my best to maintain the image quality. Of course, a stand-alone camera is also possible, but it takes a little time to change the lens.

35mm 1.4 L lens is widely used in humanities, scenery, close-up and starry sky. She is almost versatile. When there is a model, she can shoot at close range to facilitate communication with the model. Needless to say, everyone who has used it knows her good:) Without further ado, the most practical lens belongs to him! (Personal habit, spray if you don't like it. )

70-200 2.8, although there is a certain gap with 35 image quality, but fortunately it is a large aperture zoom. In inaccessible remote areas, you can use effective lenses in time without missing every inch of the scenery. It is a must for travel!

My configuration is basically like this, certainly not as good as the pursuit of Lycra coffee, but I think it is quite practical, and the pictures are all taken by myself! For reference only, learn from each other.

Personally, I understand that travel is the first and photography is the second, which is different from pure outdoor photography creation (except going to road trip).

I like "traveling with a group" and I also like photography. I use Nikon D8 10 camera. When traveling, the lens combination is: Nikon "big light bulb" (14-24f2.8)+ "big bamboo gun" (70-200f2.8). Two kinds of gold ring zoom lenses not only keep the image quality fixed, but also facilitate shooting. Whether shooting large scenes such as landscapes and buildings, or shooting people, portraits, animals and plants, especially holding night scenes, you can handle it with ease.

Some people like to focus with apertures of 24, 28, 35 and 50, and it is also feasible to add a "big bamboo gun".

The photos shared below were taken when I was traveling. I hope I can get some advice from my teachers and friends.

The theme of travel is mostly scenery, people and portraits.

Every subject can be subdivided, such as scenery. Some people are more interested in the starry sky, while others are eco-photographers who specialize in shooting birds.

Therefore, there is no best lens combination for travel, depending on your shooting purpose and needs.

Of course, if you are just a travel photographer and don't stick to a certain theme, or it will involve scenery, people and portraits, it is suggested that you take all three yuan and then take a 35/ 1.8 fixed-focus lens outdoors, which I think is enough. As for which shots are "big ternary", the explanation is as follows:

"Big Ternary" lens refers to the floorboard of three zoom lenses with constant maximum aperture of F2.8. These three lenses are only responsible for super wide angle, standard zoom and telephoto. Together, it can cover the most commonly used focal length from super wide angle to telephoto (Canon and Sony are 16-200mm, Nikon is 14-200mm, and Pentax is 15-200mm), so it is called. At the same time, only the top-grade constant aperture lens can be named "Big Ternary".

In addition, your physical equipment and physical condition, your lens shooting experience, shooting skill level, travel destination environment (ocean, desert ...), and travel mode (long-distance hiking or other ways) will all affect what lens to shoot, because after all, the lens is heavy and it is troublesome to change the lens.

To sum up, only according to the travel destination, shooting needs and personal interests, choose the most suitable shooting equipment and lens for this trip. If you only bring three lenses, it must be the most practical. I choose 35 fixed-focus lenses and 24-70, and 70-200. If I only bring one, I choose a focal length of 24-70.

You don't have to give up what you want. Welcome friends to add, correct and communicate.

Wide angle 1635, telephoto 70 200.

I also like to travel frequently and see the beauty and culture of different places. I tried to take some equipment out, as well as drones like gopro. But over time, I realized it was useless to carry too much equipment, which brought a lot of burden to travel, so I recommended one or three mirrors. After all, traveling is humanistic, so it's best to bring some customs of the surrounding environment when shooting people, so I don't recommend taking a pike out unless there is a need to shoot wild animals and birds.

Yijing 24- 105

The second mirror 24- 105+35

Three mirrors 24- 105+35+12 or 14.

Four mirrors are three yuan +85 sets.

Five mirrors and three yuan +35 fixed +85 fixed.

No matter how much, you can change to a fixed focus, but that kind of travel is like walking on the road with a bag on your back, which is really unbearable and greatly reduces the fun of traveling.

In fact, travel photography is only a large area, and there will be people who create, sketch landscapes and even take macro photography during the trip, so there is no one shot, so you can only choose according to the main shooting theme during the trip, because the brands and models used are different, so the specific lens combination is not recommended. Let's talk about the lens type first. Travel photography is naturally based on landscape shooting, so it is necessary to have a wide-angle lens with good image quality. For the convenience of composition, it is best to use a wide-angle zoom lens with a moderate aperture. Because sometimes you need to shoot at night and in the starry sky, you can shoot a grand scene with a super wide-angle and large aperture fixed-focus lens. For the medium focal length, you can choose 24-70, which is suitable for hanging at ordinary times. Scenery and humanities can be used, and then telephoto can be equipped with a 70200. As long as you don't shoot birds or the moon, you can basically be satisfied.
