CAMERAS & LENSES FOR
TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY


Capture perfect moments, scenery
& portraits on your next vacation

We love to travel, to go places and see things we’ve never seen, to meet new people and learn about cultures that are unfamiliar to us, or to engross ourselves in places and people that are so baked into our genes it’s like returning home even if you’ve never been there before.

Henry’s can help you make sure you have the camera, lenses and accessories you need to capture the character and soul of your destination, so you can share and remember it always.

Cameras

Choose a lightweight, compact interchangeable lens camera or a compact camera with super-zoom capabilities.

Tip: Take extra memory cards.

Reformatting and reusing memory cards can occasionally result in corrupted or accidentally overwritten photos. Back up your photos onto a laptop, tablet or dedicated storage device and keep that device separate from your camera gear.

Take extra memory cards on your next trip!

Lenses

The ideal travel kit should include a multi-purpose zoom and a prime lens suited to your favourite genre of photography, such as macro. Of course, you can always take more than two, just remember you have to carry it!

Tip: A mini tripod can be surprisingly useful.

It’s easier to carry and attracts less attention than a full-size tripod.

A mini tripod is easier to carry around during travel.
