Camera Tip #34 - 5 Tips for Traveling with your Camera

NYC Photo Workshop Tips

Whether you are traveling to new York City or away from new York City, if you are carrying expensive camera equipment, security should be a topic of concern. No matter where you go in the world, there is always a chance for crime. So here are 5 tips for keeping your equipment safe

1. Use a less obvious bag. Let's face it everyone knows what a camera bag looks like. Don't add extra patches on your bag that identify the fact that you have camera equipment.
2. Don't advertise. Use a generic camera strap. No need to tell thieves the exact value of your equipment.
3. Leave things you don't need in the hotel room - chargers etc.
4. Backup every night.
5. Put the hard drive in the safe.
