Travel photography is very fun to keep memories of best place and special moment during the journey or road trip. We can buy souvenir, tasting of special food or go to he special place but the best memories are photographs.

If you plan the journey and perpetuate every moment with travel photograph, below tips for you.

Preparation

You should familiar with your camera that used to travel photography. It can help you to set your camera so get the best pictures of your journey. This preparation will avoid missed your photos. Camera’s manual can guide you to try various camera setting. Chose the best pictures produced and note the camera settings for standardize.

Equipment

When you are planning your journey and need to get the travel photography, there are a couple of camera related things to put on your checklist.

  • Check that you have packed everything that you need. If you usually leave the charger lead plugged in to your socket at home, make sure you unplug it and take it with you.
  • If you are traveling abroad, check the voltage of the country you will be traveling to. You may need to take a travel plug adaptor. And if your charger doesn’t work on different voltages (quite a lot actually do, but check it), you may need to get a new charger.

Of course, if your digital camera uses standard AA batteries (uncommon these days), you don’t have to worry about this bit!

Memory Cards

When it comes to memory cards, all is not as it may seem. Memory cards continue to grow in both size and speed. So what should you be packing?

Concerning size, first you need to find out how many photos you can fit onto a card.

  • To do this, put your existing memory card into your digital camera.
  • Set your camera options to maximum resolution (probably labelled “Large”, or “Largest”).
  • Set the quality setting to the second best (Probably called “fine” (rather than “superfine”), or maybe “good” rather than “best”))

Why do I suggest using your second best quality and not the best? The difference to your eyes will be minimal, but the difference in how many photos you will be able to get on the card will be huge. If you’re traveling, you have to compromise a little on the quality in order to get the quantity.

  • Once you have set your camera up, format the memory card but make sure you have saved any photos on the card to your computer first!
  • When you have formatted your card look at your camera screen to see how many photos you will be able to fit onto that card.

The next decision is personal choice – how many photos do you think you will take? Remembering that with digital travel photography you will probably take more photos than with traditional travel photography.

Once you have a rough idea, you will know how much memory you should take on your trip.

As a final travel photography tip concerning memory cards – if you are going to be buying some new cards for your trip it’s a good idea to buy a few smaller capacity memory cards, rather than just one big one.

For example, instead of buying one 4GB card, buy four 1GB cards instead.

The reason is that if you lose your camera, or your card, all your photos will be lost. If you have more than one card, at least some photos can be salvaged.
