There’s already numerous list out there that recommend the “best gifts for photographers”, so my intention is not to reiterate any of those listed but instead to list the not-so-mentioned accessories that may spice up your shooting experience. Mentioned in no particular order:
-
The Super-Secret Spy Lens: great adjunct to capture candid shots of people just living their lives and doing real things completely unaware that there’s a camera pointing at them.
-
Cullmann Large Suction Cup: suitable for mounting cameras and camcorders to glass, plastic and other such surfaces. For example, they are frequently used by those taking in-car and in-flight videos.
-
BlackRapid R-Strap: neat innovative strap that has a spot for your ID or business cards, a cell phone/radio holder, a spare-battery pocket, and room for two CF cards.
Regardless of all the equipment that can serve as a great holiday gift, we often forget that aside from the tangible stuff, nothing beats a
