People who know me, know I like aircraft. So much so in fact I’m prepared to just drive to a hill side in Wales and wait for them to fly past.
I’m planning a trip once the days get a bit better (i.e. June/July!), but I thought I’d prepare my hiking/photography bag.
It’s quite a packed bag. But it contains:
- 2x Eos 5D bodies (Only one shown as the other took the picture)
- EF300mm f/4 Lens
- EF70-200mm f/4 Lens
- EF25-105 f/4 Lens (not shown, picture taken with it)
- EF17-40 f/4 Lens (though may substitute this for the EF 50mm f/1.4)
- EF1.4EX convertor
- Spare Batteries
- Lots of Memory cards.
- Cleaning kit
That’s the internal bits sorted.
So the top of the bag contains:
- Clothes
- Maps
- Mobiles
- Monopod
- Stool
Side bags:
- Flask (still need to find a decent one)
- Food
So quite a hefty bag. But quite comfortable. Though the climb is only a few hundred metres I still have to stop every 5 minutes or so. So I’m hoping to lose a bit of weight and get fit before I go. That said I do walk a lot more at the moment. But not enough. I’m considering using the mountain bike to get to work, so that will help with the weight.
