Travelling light with your DSLR     posted on 21st of may, 2008

You have your DSLR. You have your lenses. Many of them. What do you do if you really don't want to take them ALL with you?

Well, there are things to consider - how much weight you are prepared to carry and what compromises you are ready to take.

My personal choice for ultra light traveling is taking a wide to telephoto lens (for universality) and a small fixed focal for bokeh and its light. So, in two lenses you have almost all you need.

My set : Tamron 18-250 and 50mm f1.7 (which, by the way, is so small I can carry it in my pocket literally).

Of course I wish I could have more lenses with me at times, but when you need to go light - that's what I recommend.

I got into photography as a teenager, my very first camera was Smena, then Practica, I truly reminisce hours spent in a darkroom. But it was only when digital era started that I truly started to enjoy shooting - the effects of your work seen immediately, easier learning curve, comfortable and unlimited post-processing possibilities made things much more fun.

Apart from taking my own shots, I teach and work as an Image Editor here at Dreamstime, which means looking at hundreds of photos daily. And although I've reviewed half a million of images, I'm still impressed how much talent there is around:)

Don't take photos. Make them!

I'm one of the editors on Dreamstime.
