If you are thinking of capturing images of your next vacation and want to buy photographic equipment, as follows you will find some tips that you should consider:
Think about the purpose of your photos:
Getting technology can always be a little messy. There are plenty of offers in cameras, so the best is to be clear about our purpose: Do we want to take pictures of landscapes? Casual Photography? Friends? Do we want to have a light and easy-to-transport gear or want to have good professional equipment?
These alternatives will guide you in your search. If you are thinking of a group of interchangeable lenses, we recommend the Nikon or Canon SLRs. There are cheap models that meet all the necessary functions for your trip.
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative, we recommend entry level cameras, they do not have a reflex mechanism but have good sensors, long-range zoom and advanced options such as setting speed, and white balance adjustment also diaphragm settings. Panasonic Lumix cameras are in the highlights of this group.
Plan your photographic gear:
A lens hood and a UV filter are very useful in a photo safari. If we travel north Argentina we will find places with lots of sunlight, so it is good to be prepared for rays do not disturb our images. A tripod is also helpful. We recommend not buying those small tripods with legs under 30cm. It is better to invest a little more and have a tripod that permits us to locate the camera safely at good height and stable throughout the ground.
Do not dismiss small cameras:
A photo safari in Salta and Jujuy means median to long walks through mountains, lakes and streams. Therefore, we must think on a good gear, lightweight, resistant to weather conditions of wind and sand. We should not dismiss the use of pocket cameras, currently Nikon, Canon and Sony offer good options including some interesting tools to adjust some parameters on the photo shots. They are lightweight cameras; some have a good zoom and in many cases combine lenses and sensors of a DSLR within the body of a handheld device.
