A hybrid photographer's gear on the road

September 20, 2018 in journal

Since I'm in Portugal, I thought I'd talk about the gear that I carry with me on these kind of trips.

I try to bring as little as I can, but enough to still be able to create images, share them, edit videos and upload them, and of course publish stuff on this website.

You can watch this video I uploaded to my YouTube channel: I talk a bit about each or these items.
