When we have the opportunity to travel in different places. I do nothave to take your camera with you. Whether it is a digital camera.Or film camera. And would be a shame if we take it with a camera that is when we will take the photos. I recommend checking andpreparing the necessary equipment ready before departure travelphotography. I keep coming back to show off to your guests. Letme tell you that it is written from the experience of shooting the past. There is no right or wrong. Which they are outlined below
1. The camera - Check that the camera system ready for normal operation completely. Open the switch. Then press the shutterbefore shooting off the camera to work properly. If the camera isextremely easy. Check that the camera captures the image on the fly or not, because their electronics devices. Whether it is a digital camera or film camera. I have not used them for several months. Itook off running. It may not work either. Therefore, it is better to check before. Not enough to reach its destination. I took the camera out. The camera does not stick. I will miss the opportunity to take pictures. Unfortunately, bad things.

2. Battery / Charger - Charging the battery fully. And should have at least one spare battery pack, or if the camera is stored. Not in use for a month. Should the battery fully before recharging again. Do not be complacent that the time before the camera battery is fully charged rechargeable batteries because they are prepared in advance and then stored for a month. Will discharge itself over time even when not available. And kept it for several months. A battery problem. The discharge end and keep it up. Until the battery is defective. And can not charge it. Be careful with those who rarely use the camera. If you go abroad. May be prepared to plug the power cord plugged into an outlet for the country to be with.
If you go several days accommodation such as camping in the woods without electricity. Be prepared to fully charge the batteryand sufficient
The number of days that we go. If the camera model that usesrechargeable AA-size Alkaline batteries can be purchased atgeneral retail.
Backed up as well.
3. SD memory card - The card provides enough storage capacity to the number of images that we expect to be taken. For example. The 6-megapixel resolution digital camera images JPG files are generally used in an area of approximately 2-3 MB / capacity 1GB video card if it will shoot about 350-500 images comparable to film in a 10-15 roll. capacity already. The card must also consider the speed is measured in X (X) if X is the number of cards to record information more quickly. Depending on the speed recorded by the camera. The memory card speeds are ideal for those who like shooting a movie file as a Movie file size even more by the time they were recorded. If the card and record it. Record could be a problem. And to save yourself time.Or even if the camera type SLR, then it is recommended that you use high-speed card. This type of high-resolution camera megapixels and up 8 -10. And continuous shooting speed is faster than the 2.5 to 8 frames per second if the number of consecutive shots, then do not waste time waiting for data recording. To take pictures right away.
Another important thing is that I did not format the card before recording it. How should not use the delete (Delete) to delete the picture because it would create space for storage only. However, the format in which the camera will delete all. The system also stores the file as appropriate for the camera. Especially those who use the same card to be used with many digital cameras.Should format the card before using the camera for the first time every time. Otherwise it may cause the system to store an image of the camera and the card is not related. The record is incomplete. Sometimes the camera image. I did not save the images on the card. I returned home there was no picture on the card. And that's important to format the card to check well before the image is stored in the card into the computer and then transfer. The format of the card will delete all the permanent card.
4. Strap / Wrist Strap - Do not think that it is not important. Should attach the neck strap. The wrist strap on at all times while using the camera because the camera can be detached from your hand by mistake. Or someone else might take their time. Always have to think that accidents that happen at law.
5. Desiccant - whose name is also known as silica gel (Silica Gel) are synthetic compounds that are extracted from the white sand mixed with sulfuric acid has the scientific name as silicon dioxide (Silicon Dioxide) is a tablet. rounded by silica gel Lakษa will sound hollow, porous surface that is used to dry a lot of about 800 square meters, or about 40% by weight of 1 gram of body weight itself.
Should always carry a camera bag when you travel to take pictures in places such as humid forest, the sea to dry up, causing the lens mold. This silica gel. Available in single-use. Or recycled several times. When used, some are blue. The moisture then turns pink to warn users that it absorbs moisture and mature.To be replaced. Or some kind of recycled. To put in the oven or microwave oven does not close the moisture out and back to blue again. Leave to cool and then reuse it.
Silica gels are very affordable. Purchased by a typical camera.Some stores will be packed in a sealed plastic bag wrapped up with the volume of 50-100.
6. Product Search - Select the appropriate size and number of devices attached to the camera as well. And a convenient bag for use as a belt or a neck strap is ideal for small compact camera, a backpack, shoulder pack is perfect for your SLR camera with a very large and numerous accessories. Or packing of backpacks for SLR cameras are also very convenient for walking tours such as hiking a long time to dry out or are expected to be rainy.
It should be large enough to put a plastic bag, camera bag, camera bag attached to it. The use of emergency cover for my camera wet. Love the camera will not rain.
All of the above is a summary of the need to prepare and check the camera and equipment before departure. It's an approach that is useful enough for the novice photographer, so I will not miss recording a memorable holiday.
