Camera Kit - Renkey

 I compiled a camera kit for a travel/adventure photographer that shoots a wide range of material– including both photos and videos. I chose a wide range of lenses and camera bodies to make sure I’m prepared for any shot, including landscape, action, and wildlife. I also selected a point and shoot camera for trips where I don’t want to carry a lot of equipment. I figured a GoPro, drone, and camcorder would be valuable for videography. Additionally, I listed extra gear/resources a photographer would need, like a laptop, Adobe subscription, cleaning kit, protective filters, card cases, batteries, and rain/dust cover. This extra equipment ensures I am prepared for any emergency/hazard while traveling and exploring.
