ACCESSORIES
CAMERA STRAPS
- Black Rapid straps www.blackrapid.com (keeps weight off my neck and my back straighter). I use Optech Media and Battery Holsters on straps to hold extra battery and microfiber cloth.

MORE ACCESSORIES (that travel in checked luggage, sometimes in a Pelican case or soft sides cases to save weight)

FLASH CARDS & READER
PORTABLE STORAGE
(I recommend SSD drives for travel. The brands below are equally good)
TRIPOD and BALLHEADS
Honestly, I rarely use a tripod. I hand-hold 98 – 100 percent of the time but if I do…
(I do not use a tripod often, and have found this to be the perfect compact tripod for when I must use one.)

SOLAR
- GOAL ZERO Nomad 5 Solar Panel with Flip 24 Power bank (2 iPhone charges). Very lightweight and portable.
- Goal Zero Nomad 20 Solar Panel to use with the Venture 75 Power Bank so I can charge at least two Canon LP-E6NH and an iPhone.
TRAVEL
For the main international flight: I put my camera bag(s) inside a regulation size 22” Eagle Creek roller carry-on that also holds my hard drives, extra camera body, camera charger, and such. I take all my little accessories out of my camera bag and put them in a separate pouch, so everything is simple to hand check if they ask to look inside. I carry a briefcase (see above) as my “purse” with my MacBook Pro computer and things I need on the flight.
IF I have a big assignment and need to carry extra gear that I can’t hand carry: I pack them inside a medium-sized 1500 Pelican case (with all the inserts removed) and put it inside my duffel bag padded by all my clothes and such. This bag will be checked in. I use TSA locks on my checked luggage.
Once I get to my destination, I reorganize everything so that I leave a bag at the hotel (usually I return to the same city for my return flight). I also leave the roller bag that I used for carry-on. On my main trip, I usually only bring a soft suitcase for clothes (and my Pelican case for gear if it is needed), along with my camera bag and small bag with my computer (although sometimes I also leave this behind and put the computer in the Pelican case).
- Pelican 1500 Case or the smaller Pelican iM2100 Storm Case
- Eagle Creek Tarmac 22” Carry-on bag for international flights.
- Eagle Creek Tarmac 25” I put my pelican case inside this for international flights.
