What's In My Camera & Travel Bag 2024 (Full Time Travel Photography) 

@@NekoFever ah nice !

Thank you!!

yep!

Thanks for the tip! I'm sure I will be in that position one day

Hey Erik. How do you personally rate the sigma overall on the XH2(S)? Thinking about going into the Fuji-System and starting with the X-T5 and the Sigma zoom. I could imagine this as a really nice combo. I am also father to a nearly 2 year old and my phone is getting to slow for it. I don't know why but the Fuji System is kind of fascinating.

@@PhilJoe82 Hey Phil, for me Fuji is the perfect system. Great haptics, superb colours just out of camera. I don't like to edit photos in post. Can't even understand the point why i pay thousand of euros for a camera to edit every photo... But thats just my opinion. And with fuji you can have this just out of camera. (Film recipes) The best camera is the one you take with you. (In germany we say this) -> so for me this is fuji. Before the sigma i had the fuji 16-55 f2.8. as roman says it is a tank. Really robust, nice quality. But it is really heavy. So i bought the sigma and sold the fuji some weeks later as i can't justify having both. The weight difference is huge and for me as a hobby the quality is more than enough with the sigma. The 16-55 has some advantages when filming. It seems more stable when zooming but i don't do that so much. Regarding the price and weight difference you have to choose. But paired with the x-t5 maybe you will miss the aperature ring as my XH2S do not have all the shuttter and iso-dials. I know it is a difficult decision. Greets

Yes, wir sagen das hier in Deutschland bei uns auch so. Fuji fasziniert mich total. Aber ob ich den Mehrpreis der XH2(S) gegenüber der X-T5 rechtfertigen kann, wenn dann bspw. eine Sony A7 IV noch mal bessere Performance bzgl. Autofocus hat und die Objektivsystem teilweise sogar günstiger ist... Das ist eben die Frage. Mir geht es auch drum, dass unser Kurzer so langsam einfach nur zu schnell für die Handycam wird und ich deshalb echt über eine richtig Kamera nachdenke, um sein Heranwachsen zu dokumentieren...

@@PhilJoe82 hey. Schau dir am Besten das Video von Tobis Tings von heute Abend an. Er bringt es eigentlich perfekt auf den Punkt. Sony vs. Fuji heißt das Video.

I've never had that issue after 3 years of travel with it however I have never been through Manchester airport

All carry on, haven't checked a bag in years

No more iPad. At least not until the software catches up. Also the iPhone 15 pro can do 90% of wha the iPad can do now. I think I will get the next one anyway for lighter backpacking trips but will see

It's his everyday camera, and he brings the X-H2 and X-H2S instead if travelling for work.

I was wondering the same thing about the XT-5

Why are people so obsessed with this I would never understand. I still have it and use it for more casual trips where video isn't as big of a priority

@@snapsbyfox what can we do? That camera is an obsession! 😆😍

I still have it... It's amazing!

All carry on :) The small sling is basically a wallet

Do you have problems with airlines checking the weight on your camera bag?

Ive been in serious downpours for up to 1 hour and it held up. However even the best one can eventually soak through.

Thx Roman ... @@snapsbyfox

Not sure what Roman does but a good way to go is to get the CPL and ND filter to suit the largest diameter lens you have. Then use step up rings on smaller lenses so the larger filter will fit on every lens you have. Only need to buy and carry around one set of filters then.

I love the use of step of rings to save money/bag space. Only issue is when you also use lens hoods which is why I wonder if Roman actually brought any lens hoods on his business trip or left them at home.@@jeffappleton926

For now yes because Lightroom on iPad is missing so many features now

They are not that heavy tbh and because they are small, they look lighter than they are. All carry on, haven't checked a bag in years

Why?

generally I position the clip to the right under my arm. This is something I've been thinking about though because if someone gets it, then they have everything. I don't know what's a better solution tho

@@snapsbyfox The first thing that comes to my mind is (if it exists) a sling that it's actually sowed together, no clip. Where you can still adjust the length, but you can't actually separate the strap from the bag in either end.

They normally use a sharp implement to cut the straps of sling bags. You can get seatbelt cutters. Best solution is to be aware of your surroundings but that’s not easy when you’re distracted with taking photos.

I got it on a huge deal a couple years ago.. no real reason

Sandisk is rated for dust and water resistance, great for travelling. T7 series isn’t ( apart from the T7 Shield ). I have a T7 standard - best deal at the time. I stick it on to my Macbook with velcro. Furtherest it travels is the room next door though 😢

Lil late but... One camera loose in the backpack (stays at base whilst he's out) one camera & the rest of the lenses in the bellroy 10l whilst on the move & shooting.

@@kenrhem thank you for this answer bro but I really didn't remember a frame of the video 😅

I still have it

It's an old custom made one. That company o longer exists but plenty on amazon that are similar I'm sure

yeah both are carry on

ah yeah it's the 40L venture

odd, maybe its a bad SD card?

Works for me: iOS17.2.1 + cheap Amazon lightning card reader w/ Micro SD card. Hope this helps 👍🏻

@@snapsbyfox Card works on my PC and my macbook. So it's either the phone or the adapter. Will continue to troubleshoot. Thanks! And I really love your videos :)

@@coolbrian which iPhone are you on? I'm on the 13 with iOS 17.2.1 but it doesn't work. Seeing as Roman is now on the 15 Pro, it may be that Apple has gatekept the feature to USB-C readers

Hey, I have the 14 Pro ( Lightning port ). Here's how I test: (1) I open 'Photos' app (2) I insert Micro SD into the reader first (3) When I connect the reader, an icon appears in Photos on the bottom right to 'import.' It's good to test with the native app Photos when you're troubleshooting to rule out any 3rd party app dev issues IMO. Also noted, when I connect the card reader without a Micro SD card inserted, nothing happens in Photos at all - no import icon appears. A working card must give some sort of signal to the iPhone. Hopefully this will help you narrow it the issue a little further. @@noveullotus

Still have it

@@snapsbyfox 👍🏼

All carry on, I never check anything in

Still have it

Yeah visiting friends and filming two interviews
