with Mark Wallace where you learn innovative techniques
on shooting a wide range a photographer here's your host
hi everybody you're watching another episode of exploring photography right
here on
Adorama TV I'm Mark Wallace and as you've noticed I'm on the beach here in
beautiful city of Nassau in the Bahamas
and I'm starting a I'm a few years of travel around the world
my good friend Lex and a lot of people have seen the past episodes were talking
about pre-production all the stuff that we're going to be
prepared but now we're actually on the road and the question I got more
than
anything is what gear did you actually bring
and how did you carry it well here's the bag that I took right here
and I'm gonna show you everything there is to know about this bag what I put inside
and how are using it so
as they're doing is on the beach were it's really windy we're gonna go to the
courtyard
outside your little apartment that we rented it and I'll show you everything there is to know
about this bag
but before that check out these contests from Adorama
let's take a look at this backpack it's made by Tenba and this is a brand
new backpack it's called the shootout 24L
and there's some things about this that make it perfect for travel
photography
mainly it's made to be really lightweight and rugged
now on the front here you can see that it's got it suspension system for a
tripod
so I'm gonna take my tripod of really quickly you can see this actually folds away
this is a
carbon fiber Benro tripod let me put that to the side
now a couple things I love about this on outside while one the side right here if
you want to get your
camera quickly this just opens up and your camera can
be pulled right out you put that right in and so and that makes
easy to get access to a camera with opening the entire bag
and also there are a lot of considerations for travelers or those
who shoot in the wilderness
and that is these big pockets to the side here so you can put a water bottle
or whatever you want
in the side and then they're big side patches input straps or model pods
or what ever you want there's a lot of things going on on this camera bag I've got all my little
accessories in here and I've got an iPhone inside
and so it makes it really easy to get to things like travel documentary here
I've got all my documents and tickets and passport in there
In through the side here and got my headphones I can use if I need to. So a
lotta external pockets
that allow you to do lots of things and you also have
compression straps so that's awesome what we gonna do next
is actually open up this bag I'll show you what inside and will use the tripod
the steady this
shot so were not shooting handheld so we'll do that right now. Inside this bag you see
there's a ton a space a couple things that are missing right here right here's
where we actually hold the video camera that shooting the video that you're
seeing right now
and then right here is where we hold the wireless microphones that I'm using right
now so that's why there's two spots that are empty
you see this has a lot a room this can hold a a professional DSLR body
this is a 24-70mm lens you can actually
fit 24 to 70 in here so it's gotta lotta space
and you keep your camera this way or this way you can actually hold to
cameras I got mine in here cuz it goes out that side pocket right here
I also have another Lens right here this is 16-35mm
I've got some adapters for charging my USB devices
that my lens head for my 65-35mm and I also have my power adapter for my
laptop that's in here
I also have Chargers from my camera
for my video camera and got my zoom that we talked about a couple of episodes ago my
hard drive
my GoPro for shooting underwater video things like that
I have a nice leatherman here for
adjusting tripods and anything that I would have to have then over here
I have all my cables for hooking up microphones USB cables
and windscreens things like that so lots and lots of space
inside this. I want to show you one more thing and that's how this
is used as an actual laptop bag because
I also have a computer in here so I'm a show you that next
toward the back of the bag there's a large compartment that holds a laptop
this is a 13-inch MacBook Pro you can put up to a 15 inch laptop in here
there's lot the padding to protect your gear and so it's awesome this
is the Tenba shootout 24 L and it's made specifically for adventure travel
photography
and those of you who were out shooting in the wilderness doing wildlife
photography and you know it's nice it can actually work for
corporate events or shooting at wedding cuz it's nice and
low-key it's really an awesome bag. now all the gear and things that we talked
about
