Accessories
Here are some very useful accessories to think about buying…
Tripods
The one accessory that will massively improve your photography, helping to keep the camera perfectly still at the point of exposure.
Tripods are always a balance between portability and weight – be careful of cheap lightweight tripods!
Manfrotto Element Traveller Tripod
A fantastic compact travel tripod from Manfrotto. The Manfrotto Element Carbon Fibre Big Traveller has a maximum height of 164cm yet folds down to just 41cm and weighs in at just 1.4kg, so it won’t break your baggage allowance! Really easy to set-up and very stable – perfect for those long exposures on your travels…
Manfrotto PIXI Mini Tripod
A great accessory to keep in the camera bag! A mini tripod which will hold a small entry-level DSLR or CSC Mirrorless camera. Comes with a Smartphone holder – perfect for holding the phone steady when using Zoom / Skype
