My Favourite Products
DJI Drone – Mavic Pro 2
If you are wanting to take aerial videos or photos then the DJI drone series is the best you can find. I would always purchase the drone with the remote flying pack for best results.
GoPro Hero 7
When you are wanting to film underwater or while moving at speed then this is the best camera option on the market in my opinion. The GoPro range has come a long way from when I first had my Hero 3 and now all my underwater and action filming is done with this.
Nikon D5600
Take your camera and photography to the next level with this easy to use and yet versatile Nikon camera. A really good option for a reliable travel camera that will capture the best of your surroundings.
Other Filming and Photography Items
Nikon Camera Bag
Having a separate camera bag that can just hold your camera and a spare lens is a good option to have when you are not wanting to carry all your equipment through a city for the day.
Sony RX100 VII Digital Camera
Having a dedicated vlogging camera that can adapt to your stabilizer and be easy to record on the move is an option to consider if vlogging is a real passion of yours. The Sony RX100 VII Digital Camera is a great option.
USB Cord
Just having this cord in your camera bag will save you more times than you can imagine. USB charging ports are becoming much more popular now and easy to find. Have one for your phone and camera charger.
Portable Hard Drive
Having somewhere to be able to back-up and store your photos and videos is a must. Having them well organised is also perfect to save time when creating blog posts or editing.
DJI Drone Batteries
Having at least 3 drone batteries is a must to be able to produce any sort of quantity amount and quality when it comes to videos.
Universal Travel Adapter
Having all this photography and video gear is no good to you unless you can keep it charged while you are exploring different countries around the world.
Selfie Stick
I resisted this trend for so long but in the end, I gave in and got one before my trip to South America. It is a device I use now with no shame because it makes capturing yourself in awesome surroundings so easy.
Huawei Mobile Phone
I recently switched to a Huawei mobile phone and haven't looked back. The camera capabilities, battery life and storage memory is second to no other previous phone I've had.
GoPro Batteries
Having an extra set of GoPro batteries is a must when wanting to do filming for a few hours or over the course of a day or multi-day hike. While GoPro's are great all action cameras have a shortish battery life span.
Nikon Camera Battery
I would always suggest having a minimum of one extra battery for your camera. The last thing you want is to have it go flat half-way through your day out.
SD Card
Ensure you have enough space to capture all the photos and video recordings you want and then more. You can never have too many of these lightweight cards. I suggest always carrying at least 3 of these in your camera bag.
DJI Drone – Mavic Pro 2
If you are wanting to take aerial videos or photos then the DJI drone series is the best you can find. I would always purchase the drone with the remote flying pack for best results.
Nikon Camera lens 18-140mm
If you are starting to really get into your photography then investing in a mid range lens that covers a lot more zoom variety is a great idea. It reduces the amount of time you are required to change lens, reducing the chances of missing the shot you want.
Nikon Camera Lens – 70-300mm
This is the best budget-priced lens you should look to have with you if you're heading on an African safari or other travel adventure where capturing an image from afar is required.
Camera Lens – 18-55mm
A great basic everyday camera lens that will capture your travel and landscape photography without any issues. Usually, the lens that will come standard with a Nikon camera.
Leather Camera Strap
Have a comfortable and strong camera strap for carrying your camera. The bonus of this strap is also the storage option for lens caps. Haven't lost a lens cap since.
LowePro Camera Bag
The best camera bag I have found on the market and has enough space to store all your filming and photography gear plus a laptop in one place.
Manfrotto Compact Tripod
Film perfect time-lapse photos and smooth videos on your camera with this light and compact tripod
GoPro Accessories
Be able to use your GoPro anywhere you go on any outdoor activity you do with this accessories pack.
Zhiyun Smooth 4 Stabilizer
Allow your mobile phone record smooth and clear videos while on the move with this easy to use stabilizer. One of my favourite items to allow me to film easily with my phone anywhere I travel.
GoPro Hero 7
When you are wanting to film underwater or while moving at speed then this is the best camera option on the market in my opinion. The GoPro range has come a long way from when I first had my Hero 3 and now all my underwater and action filming is done with this.
Nikon D5600
Take your camera and photography to the next level with this easy to use and yet versatile Nikon camera. A really good option for a reliable travel camera that will capture the best of your surroundings.
