No one wants to take a lot of equipment with them when they leave the house, but there are some items you may want to keep at your disposal if you are planning to take great photos while you are out and about. Perhaps you are heading to the beach with the family. You may be going to the park to capture some great photos for your collection. Whatever you do, you need to invest in having the right equipment to ensure every shot counts.
The Things You Need
So, what should you have ready to go? Here are a few things everyone should have if they are out shooting.
1. Multimedia Photo Viewers: It happens to everyone: the filled up memory without warning. If you are out shooting, these photo viewers are a great investment because they allow you to transfers your photos from your camera. There are several different configurations and they will cost you a few hundred dollars, but for a photographer that wants to have maximum options, these photo viewers are the way to go.
2. Look for a flexible tripod. A good example of this is a Gorilla pod. What is nice about them is they are highly sturdy and very easy to use. You can place them on just about anything. Mount them to your bike or even to something you come across on your shoot for some interesting shots. They are not too expensive, usually under $100 and are very easy to transport from place to place. Get the right size for your camera, though.
3. The Diffuser. A diffuser can help you to improve the coloring and reduce the intensity of your flash. Depending on if you have invested in a highly expensive and hard to use external flash, you may want to choose another option. For example, you can use a white card placed at an angle at the flash to allow the diffuser against something else, such as the wall. Or, you can use a piece of scotch tape over the flash. You will need to work with it to get the best results.
When it comes to shoots like this, you should be ready for anything. These tips will help you ensure you are ready for all those shots that are important to you. Even for a planned event, having these pieces with you can save the day or at least save the shot.
