Essential accessories for your camera

We know you want to travel as light as possible. But you can't go on holiday without our must-haves. In the comments section, don't forget to write down if there are any other photo essentials without which you wouldn't go on holiday!
Bags or panniers
You need to put your camera equipment, as well as your laptop or tablet, and a few personal items in something. Before you drop your lens in the water, get your tripod stuck under your arm or lose your filter, it's best to store everything in one place. We recommend either a shoulder bag or a backpack. It's up to you to choose the material and size. These three bags have been designed to hold photo equipment and are ideal for protecting your gear.
Tripods
The best holiday photos are those taken at sunrise, sunset or with a long exposure time. You get the best results with a compact, lightweight travel tripod. Group photos and portraits also turn out better with a tripod. Take one with you, you won't regret it.
Sangles
No need to explain why you need a strap. We offer a variety of models in our range. Here are our three favourites. The Curve Breathe and the Capture Pro are very practical and allow you to always have your camera to hand. The Slide is also very practical, but its main attraction is its design.
Filters
Bright blue skies, the sea and green palm leaves are among the classic holiday motifs. To make your sky a deep blue, if you want to avoid reflections in the water and get even deeper colours, you should take a polarising filter with you. Make sure you choose a model that is compatible with your lens.
SD card, external hard drive and powerbank
There's nothing worse than a full memory card when there are still so many potential holiday subjects to photograph. An SD card with a capacity of 32GB is more than enough for most cameras and holidays. Do you really want a lot of photos and also want to shoot videos? Then I recommend using an external hard drive. The model I'm presenting here is also very robust.
