If you are into serious photography, the first things you need are a camera body and one or more lenses. But in addition to these there are many things that are needed or come handy. Here are non-conclusive lists of things that I use or have used. text/html 2023-02-22T22:37:31+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://heikkisiltala.net/wiki/en/photography/camera_stuff/kenko_ef_extension_tubes?rev=1677105451&do=diff Kenko EF Extension Tubes Written in 2012. I have a set of Kenko extension tubes to be used with my EF/EOS lenses. These tubes do have EF electronics coupling so the camera will at least try to focus automatically. These same tubes are available under different brands. text/html 2023-02-22T22:37:31+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://heikkisiltala.net/wiki/en/photography/camera_stuff/lowepro_magnum_aw?rev=1677105451&do=diff Lowepro Magnum AW Written in 2009. Lowepro Magnum AW used to be my primary camera back. But my equipment got bigger and I could not fit them into the bag anymore so I switched to Lowepro Stealth Reporter D650 AW. Today Lowepro Magnum AW is my secondary back that I use to store some of my idle equipment. And sometimes when I have only a small amount of stuff to be I go back using it. text/html 2023-02-22T22:37:31+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://heikkisiltala.net/wiki/en/photography/camera_stuff/lowepro_nature_trekker_aw_ii?rev=1677105451&do=diff Lowepro Nature Trekker AW II Written in 2009. Lowepro Nature Trekker AW II is my current primary camera bagpack. I mostly use Lowepro Stealth Reporter D650 AW but sometimes I have a need for a bagpack. The construction of Lowepro Nature Trekker AW II is very stury and in my use it will probably last forever.

It is a small and light backbag of excellent quality. Despite of the compact size it still carries both my cameras, a bottle of water, a compact umbrella, a small laptop and some other stuff.

Canon Angle Finder C was the thing that I expected to revolutionize my shooting style. I was expecting it to be very easy to shoot from lower positions with it. Actually it didn't help much. I think this is because it is not flexible: you can't change the angle. In practical action photography you will soon find yourself returning back to the standard shooting position and putting Canon Angle Finder C back to your bag. Currently I have not much use for it. text/html 2023-02-22T20:42:38+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://heikkisiltala.net/wiki/en/photography/camera_stuff/marumi_digital_pro_aircell?rev=1677098558&do=diff Marumi Digital Pro Aircell Written in 2010. Marumi Digital Pro Aircell is my current camera strap used with Canon EOS 1D Mark III. It is an excellent camera strap regarding the comfort. Upgrading your camera strap from the standard strap increases your satisfaction more than you might think. Personally I'll never downgrade back to the original strap.
