Traveling to Europe with your digital camera?
The holiday season is fast approaching and, of course, will take your digital camera along the day. After all your vacations are far and few between and it is good to look back on memories as slaves away at work. However, when traveling with a digital camera is a completely different experience of traveling with a film camera. This is a lesson that too many travelers seem to be learning the hard way, especially if you're traveling to Europe. After several years of couples rely solely on digital for taking photos when I travel, there are things you should consider before you head on your next trip.
Charging batteries is one of the biggest stumbling blocks you'll face when traveling. Outlets are be scarce in hotels. On a recent trip to Europe, only one of five modern hotels I had been in more than one outlet available for use when charging to electronics. Charging the battery may be more of a hassle if you are traveling by train: If you take an overnight train in Europe, have no power adapters in the seats (certain trains do, but not something that can be counted.) I suggest bringing at least two rechargeable batteries, three if you plan to travel with overnight trains, or do not think you will be able to charge every night. If your camera uses regular AA batteries, consider yourself lucky, you find the sides. Determine status in your room when you check: You should get at least a useful output, but have no more than that.
Bring your earplugs. Some digital cameras usually come with a power brick that can handle international voltages, so you will not need a voltage adapter. However, you need an adapter outlet to convert a U.S. outlet plug for the local outlet. Most of Europe is in the same outlet now, but not all countries accept the general "Europe" plug. Be sure to research you need to take, and try to buy before you leave (try CompUSA, Radio Shack, Rand McNally, or your store local luggage). If you do not have the opportunity to get what you need in the United States, do not worry: you should have no trouble finding an outlet converter overseas.
How I can download my pictures? For fellow travelers who use digital cameras, this was the number one problem I have heard several occasions. Many comments from people who travel for a week or more are: "I'm taking more pictures than I expected." "I do not shoot the best resolution, because I need the space on my memory card. "" I am only half of my trip, and I have only 50 shots left. "When you travel, odds is that you take more pictures than you expect too. A 1 GB card is very useful and should be sufficient for low-use knobs. But for those of us you can go through a gigabyte or more in one day, a week? Whether it's because you are a high volume shooter, shooting in RAW format, or a combination of both. What I found was that there were many digital SLRs, that had 5 megapixel or more reported they were traveling with a laptop upload your images. None of these people were on a business trip, so it was not necessary to bring a laptop. The sad fact is, for now, remains a laptop the most effective and useful image upload. Epson and Nikon have dedicated handheld units with a hard disk, card reader and LCD display for copying over and check your images. However, no full-fledged keyboard. If you are first buying a laptop, and intend to travel with him, I suggest you go for the smallest possible. Fujitsu, Panasonic, Sharp and Sony have models under four pounds. A laptop provides several additional advantages. On the one hand, you can view photos on a large screen to see how you're doing, and if you see any problem you want to correct, exposure, for example, or if the images are being affected by dirt. On the other hand, it can properly label your folders, so you know that the pictures were taken when. Most new laptops Readers have integrated memory card, but otherwise, you can buy a small external card reader. For the wireless approach, use a PC Card adapter memory card slot, and invest in a 32-bit CardBus adapter (Delkin and Lexar Media offer these), for rapid transfer. There's nothing worse to return to the hotel after a long day of sightseeing, and needing to stay awake another 40 minutes just to off-load two 1 GB cards, about 20 minutes each one. If you bring your laptop, I also suggest investing in a portable hard drive. A portable hard drive can serve multiple purposes: it can be a means of Back up your photos on the way, a way to give a way to take your photos with you if you have to leave your laptop unattended, and a means of expanding if you somehow manage to fill your laptop built-in hard drive. If you do not want to carry a laptop, and you have an Apple iPod, Belkin sells an attachment for use your iPod with memory cards, or take into account the expensive units from Nikon and Epson. And if you're in a bind, remember you can always buy memory overseas. I was surprised when I went to Europe, prices were high, but not as outrageously so that I would not buy another card if I were in a bind. Cards were more easy to obtain, also, what was the last time I traveled through Europe three years ago. Look at it this way: Even if you pay more in card, you can still reuse it-which beats overpaying for a film cartridge 35 mm single use when I was in trouble in recent years.
Be prepared for problems. Things happen when you travel and have had more things go wrong bring my digital SLR camera I had with my 35mm over the years. the role of the target is always useful to have on hand, but if you have a digital SLR, another supply is absolutely critical: A bulb blower air to blow dust and dirt that will inevitably get trapped inside the camera. I never had problems with my 35 mm SLR, but with my digital SLR, I constantly find Dirt is trapped inside, when to change lenses. And there's nothing worse than having a stain ruin your otherwise awesome shots. Finally, remembering the philosophy redundancy. Whether your battery dies and has no way of collecting, or you run out of space on the memory card (s) and do not want to buy another at a price higher than normal, I suggest packing a second camera if possible. A digital point and shoot is a good choice but usually carry a point and shoot 35 mm for use if there a problem so I will not lose any precious pictures.
