Nauticam Canon 5D IV Underwater Housing NA-5DIVCheck Price |
My go-to camera in the field is the Canon R5 and R5 Mark II. It’s a fast camera with plenty of pixels, which is invaluable when photographing and cropping wildlife. I still keep my 5D Mark IV as well, as the Nauticam underwater housing I use on occasion is the model designed for that camera. Extenders and extension tubes are also great ways to get more versatility and use out of your pricey lenses.

I generally try to travel with only two bags unless I’m going on a very long trip. The Gura gear City Commuter backpack holds my cameras and all the things I might need while on the plane as it’s my carry-on bag, while I check the very large wheeled Osprey bag. Both include an Apple Air Tag so I can see where they are at any given time. I don’t use the remote timer quite as often as I used to since the options on cameras and phone apps handle a lot of that these days, but it’s still useful to have for certain setups.

I do all of my editing on a powerful MacBook Pro. The Retina Display technology displays my images with unparalleled depth wherever I’m at in the world. Of course, you’ll need software for that purpose as well and for the cost of a couple cups of coffee a month, the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography plan gives you access to the two most indispensable tools in your arsenal – Lightroom and Photoshop. Extra memory cards for your particular camera are obviously a must, and for massive storage I trust Samsung portable SSD drives that will transfer today’s large file sizes quickly and efficiently.
