I use ThinkTank and MindShift products to carry and protect my gear. Also, as I’m sure you know, there is more to photography than just the cameras and lenses. As our photography grows, so do our accessories!

 
 

MindShift Rotation Backpack 34L

(ThinkTank | Adorama | Amazon)

I love this pack! I keep two cameras in the rotation pack for ready access. I'm often photographing knee deep in water and can't put a bag down on the ground. The Rotation Backpack is perfect for muddy, wet environments when you can’t put a bag on the ground.

ThinkTank Airport Advantage

(ThinkTank | Adorama | Amazon)

This is my go-to bag for getting my gear from Point A to Point B. I prefer this bag over its bigger brother (the XL) because it fits in the overhead bin on smaller regional airplanes.

Lume Cubes

(Adorama | Amazon)

I use Lume Cubes in lieu of flashlights. They are smaller, rechargeable, and controllable from my smart phone (bluetooth version of the cube). Did I mention... they are waterproof and shockproof, too!

Watch this video for how I use Lume Cubes in my landscape photography.

Stash Master Top Load

(ThinkTank | Adorama)

I use the Stash Master as the insert for the top half of my Rotation Backpack. The Top Load version works beautifully with my backpack, and carries the rest of my field gear safely and securely. If you’re the type of photographer that has multiple field kits, the Stash Master is a good system to quickly swap kits depending on the nature of your next outing.

ThinkTank Urban Approach 15

(ThinkTank | Adorama | Amazon)

A great day pack and also my go-to bag for air travel. It's compact and fits in any overhead compartment and under the seat. I never worry about checking gear on a flight with this bag.

MindShift Filter Hive

(ThinkTank | Adorama | Amazon)

The Filter Hive has enough space for my ND filters, polarizers and mounting brackets (I don't use the circular filter storage slots). I drape it around my tripod for quick and easy access in the field.

LensCoat Hoodie

(LensCoat | Adorama | Amazon)

I have a Lens Coat Hoodie for each of my lenses. These are soft, elastic lens covers. I love that they stretch around the filter ring adapters that are 99% of the time on my lenses.

They come in a variety of sizes and colors. Measure your lens diameter with a ruler (old school) and you’ll know what size to get for your lens.

The Medium size works great with my Haida filter adapter rings.

ThinkTank PhotoCross 13” Backpack

(ThinkTank | Adorama | Amazon)

I like a backpack style pack to keep weight distributed evenly across my shoulders. The PhotoCross 13” is a great day pack that carries a healthy amount of gear. It’s side access panel is quick to access without having to put everything down on the ground.

Foto&Tech Wireless Remote

(Adorama | Amazon)

This simple, inexpensive wireless trigger fits the bill perfectly for my style of photography. For extra long exposures, one press starts the exposure and a second press ends it.
