The most common question I get ever since I started growing on Instagram<\/a><\/strong> and getting my blog up and running is centered around my travel blog photography. What blogging equipment do I use? How do I take my photos? And, most of all, what\u2019s the best camera for travel blogging? Today I decided to address all these questions and show you what\u2019s in my camera bag. So get ready, as I\u2019ll show you all my travel blogging gear!<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re a travel blogger and content creator, taking flawless photos is one of the most important things. Not the only one, of course – good content and strong ideas are also key elements if you want to gain an awesome, faithful community. But let\u2019s face it: everything starts with a good picture.<\/p>\n

After researching A LOT and changing equipment over the years, I have finally created the ideal photography kit for travel blogging that works for me, my style and my content. Let\u2019s get started:<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tWhat’s in my camera bag<\/h2>\n

1 – Camera<\/h3>\n

\"what's<\/p>\n

Everything starts with the camera, of course. Although, if you ask me, if you\u2019re a creative person just starting out, you can still achieve incredible results with the cheapest camera on the market and none of that expensive editing software. <\/p>\n

But in order to make your life easier, purchasing a good camera that will help you get amazing results in all types of lighting (especially low light) will be one of the best decisions you will ever make. Been there, done that!<\/p>\n

My Camera:<\/b> Canon EOS 5D Mark IV<\/a><\/strong> – This is one of the top cameras on the market right now, for both photo AND video. I chose Canon as a personal preference, but you can also opt for Nikon or for a mirrorless camera as well, such as Sony Alpha – all of them are fabulous choices.<\/p>\n

Cheaper Camera Option:<\/b> Canon EOS 80D<\/a><\/strong> – This one\u2019s a great option as well for both photography and HD video recording.<\/p>\n

Mirrorless Camera Option: <\/b>Canon EOS M50<\/a><\/strong> – This is a brilliant starter DSLR camera opinion and great for travel as it\u2019s powerful, yet small and lightweight.<\/p>\n

MY OPINION: <\/strong>It\u2019s really hard to say which is the best camera for travel blogging. For me it\u2019s the Canon 5D Mark IV, but somebody else might tell you that they\u2019re doing a terrific job with a lower-end camera. Which is completely fine! My advice to you is to make a shortlist adapted to your budget and preferences and maybe rent the cameras for a day or two and make a practical comparison between them. It comes down to personal choice, so it\u2019s worth spending some time trying your options to make an informed decision!<\/p>\n

2 – Lens<\/h3>\n

\"sigma<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the hard truth: you can have the most expensive camera on the market, but if you don\u2019t have the right, high-quality lens for it and the type of photography you are planning on creating, you won\u2019t get very good results. A camera body has no use if you don\u2019t attach the perfect lens to it, am I right? …Rhetorical question. I am right. <\/p>\n

Below I\u2019ve made a list with my three lens options that I take everywhere with me. These are the best lens for a photography kit if you ask me:<\/p>\n
