Vanguard Bags and other equipment

Other essential items that I carry are as follows…

  • A Vanguard VEO2 or Benro Mach 3 Tripod both with Ball Heads – Used for almost all my landscape shots

  • Vanguard Alta Sky 51D Bag, or Vanguard Sedona Wanderlust Backpack

  • DJI Mavic Air 2 Drone - Great for a different perspective

  • Move Shoot Move - Star Tracker - Affiliate link for clarity

  • A Peak Design Capture Pro and Slide Light

  • Cleaning Kit – Need I explain? Lens wipes, microfibre cloth etc

  • Towels – I always carry some flannel size towels too, very useful if shooting in less than perfect conditions when needing to wipe down equipment

  • Remote Timer for Long Exposure Shots

  • Memory Cards – Yes, plural! Firstly, useful if you run out of space. Secondly, never have just one. Every photographer will have, at some point, turned on their camera to realise the memory card is still sat in its reader somewhere!

  • Battery Charger and Power Bank – You never want to be left short of charge!
