Landscape Photography in the UK

What to bring

• your camera and other essential accessories
• memory card or film
• battery and charger
• cable or card reader for downloading images to computer
• waterproof clothing and outdoor footwear, ideally walking boots
• bag or bags for your camera equipment, spare clothing, lunch, water, etc (smaller bags usually mean lighter loads!)

Optional camera accessories (remember you will have to carry some of these):

• spare memory cards
• spare camera battery
• spare camera (you never know)
• small selection of lenses: wide angle, telephoto, macro, for example
• filters: neutral density and graduated, polarising
• laptop for viewing, editing and sharing images (whilst it’s not absolutely essential, bringing your own laptop will mean you get more from your photography holiday if you shoot digital)
• your camera’s instruction manual (especially if you are a beginner, and because even your leader hasn’t memorised every digital camera menu setting)
• tripod (arguably essential for landscape photography holiday)
• perhaps a monopod instead of a tripod
• camera rain-protector – a shower cap or plastic bag, or something more expensive if you like
• notebook and pencil (pencils work better in the rain!)
