Well, I could not in all consciousness justify $150 in snacks , (I am pretty sure my office mates would not have minded even though right now they re pretty satiated at the moment with all the Pretzel Crisps lying around !) so, I scratched my head and started exploring.
I have a pretty smart group of freaders out there, so you probably are already aware that Staples sells cameras. I wasn t! After doing some of my own travels on the site I came up with the perfect compilation of products to share: a newbie photography kit for travelers !
I am a huge fan of Canon. My first real camera was a Canon and I have since graduated to a 5D Mark II, which is what Mr. Misadventures has too. We re a Canon family and we always will be! I checked out the Canon line that Staples carried and read the customer reviews not only on their site but a few other sites as well. What I landed on was the Canon PowerShot A2300 which is a nice entry-level point-and-shoot that consistently excels in picture quality. It s price point is below $100 which I find phenomenal, I think its perfect for a young traveler or post-graduate explorer.
With camera in hand you need a memory card to capture all those awesome shots, so I ve selected a SanDisk memory card that s will get ya started. It s 16 GB so it will hold a lot of photos. Once you ve taken those photos and are ready to share, Staples has a great memory card reader for uploading to your computer, laptop or tablet. Also, I never travel anywhere without a little analog in the form of a Moleskine notebook that I use for taking notes on locations, camera settings, restaurant recommendations, you name it. It is the one travel tool I never leave home without.
I think I did a pretty good job with this assignment, how about you? I found products from brands that I use and love and think this kit that comes in at under $150 will serve someone well, even if travel mean crossing from one part of town to the next. I was completely surprised by the amount of products that Staples carries I guess that easy button really is accurate.
There is one last thing that I think would make this kit special. And that s to take all the products I bought at Staples.com and throw them into a Kelly Moore Riva bag . It s the baby of the Kelly Moore family and will fit all the contents of my newbie photography kit perfectly.
Think I totally messed up where I was meant t write and submitted without saying anything . But, I would take it all to my mum s house in Hertfordshire because I think there s a photographer inside her That just needs the kit to be released!
I would take this camera bag to a wedding we are going to in May to get a lot of pictures of the bride, groom my kids, and then to our trip to Disney to get a lot more pictures since it will be my kid s first time going.
I live in the Poconos PA There are so may things to take pictures of, the scenery is beautiful in the winter. Also we have a lot of Ski Resorts I would love to capture my son snowboarding and my daughter is involved in cheerleading so we go to a few school sport events i would love to capture her while she s young. My other daughter is Autistic but when you get he in the right mood she loves to be in pictures so i haven t many of the 3 kids together. train travel in the usa I would love to capture her with them and keep them for my family photes
I would take pictures of my cross-country train travel in the usa trip home in the summer train travel in the usa from Arizona to Maryland. When I got there I would take plenty of pictures train travel in the usa of the friends, family and boyfriend that I havent seen in months!
I would take this Everywhere! I had a Canon elf ages ago and with children, well poor camera but I was impressed with it s quality even as a point and shoot. This would be a nice everywhere adventure camera
I would take it everywhere! I have a camera, but I ve been looking for something small like this that I could take everywhere with me. I would look forward to being able to take a picture of all those I wish I had a camera moments..
I would take them EVERYWHERE! There are so many times in my just daily running around I see things I would like to take a picture of. Most of the time it s weather-related we get a lot of interesting cloud formations and such here! I would also take pictures of the mountains or deer that steal apples train travel in the usa from our backyard so many things. haha
I m taking a trip to Prague over the summer with my family to visit where my grandmother lived before coming to the US. I love history so I can t want to learn about my family and go across the pond again
If I won this newbie photography kit I would take pictures during my upcoming trip to Australia (June/July 2013). I am visiting my boyfriend (long distance relationship like you and your husband!) and other friends. I am most looking forward to getting new pictures of myself train travel in the usa and my boyfriend together. We haven t seen each other since August.
There is no such thing as too many pictures. My camerea just broke and I took pictures all the time. We goto the park, we go to the zoo, we go to the museums, I like to take picutes at all of those places to save our memories. At the end of the year, I normally turn in those pictures and have a desk calender made si I can look at them while I am working.
I personally really love photography would most look forward to finishing up my adventure of visiting each state of the US. A small camera like that would be perfect to slip in my pocket while out visiting new places to capture photo s of the things I see.
My husband and I are taking a much needed vacation alone this year. After 13 years together and 4 kids it is our first vacation as a couple. I would like to take pictures of all the beautiful sights we see. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway
I would love to take these prizes everywhere i go.. I love both sunset and sunrise. I love botanical gardens, and butterflies, landscapes and skylines, and the wild wild west, jungle animals, and domestic pets. I love ocean views, and coral reefs, frosty mountain peeks, I love the old majestic train travel in the usa redwood trees and green rolling hills, wildflowers in the meadow lows, and roller coaster thrills. pebbles in the streams, and driftwood in the sand, rainbows, stars full moons and happy faces all across this land. Yeah.. i would capture lots of memories.
I have cancer and chemo is not going well. On days i felt better, i would take pictures of things that bring me joy. Then when i dont feel like going somewhere, i could look at all the pictures. [email protected]
In March, we are taking our Granddaughter (her 1st time to the mountains), to the Dollywood Festival of Nations in Pigeon Forge, TN. Of course we will take advantage of all the attractions and rides @DollyWood A theme park that includes Dolly Parton s history museum. On the way up we are going to George Vanderbilt s 250-room Biltmore House. in Asheville, NC. On our way home we are going to Grandfather Mountain near Asheville, NC, it s one of the most biologically diverse train travel in the usa mountains named by UN as a International Biosphere Reserve. Hopefully we will have time to visit Mount Mitchell State Park ( the highest point east of the Mississippi at an elevation of 6,684 feet) and walk on the Appalachian Trail. We are so excited and would love to win this camera to take pictures of the whole trip for our memories.
I would take it to our local Nature Park/Bird of Prey Refuge and take family pictures (which we haven t done since 2009), and some recent pictures of the kids together. Thanks! hstorm799{at}gmail{dot}com
Hi what a great idea!! I would take my kit to Paris and make a beeline to Pere Lachaise cemetary and spend the day meandering through this labyrinth of stones, trees and dirt paths capturing it all on film: Miniture castles, Egyptian statues and detailed sculptures! Heaven!!!!
When i had my DSLR i used to take it everywhere because you never know when youll need to take that perfect shot. I love taking pictures of my son and i would always be on the lookout for a great shot.
I would probably take it with me to the nature trails that run throughout our city. Lots of the areaa would be covered in snow right now and would look marvelous! I d really love to take pictures of animals playing in the snow. Squirrels and chipmunks.
There is this LOVELY beach in Southern California called Crystal Cove, that is where I d take this wonderful prize. The beach is clean and there really train travel in the usa are caves (but you have to climb/get wet) and the purple crabs that reside there are beautiful (and kind of scary, lol!) The scenery is amazing, it is a place I love to go to when I want to meditate or just enjoy myself. I d love to win this prize to capture some of the beauty. Thank you so much!
I would love to take my kit when I go to visit my friend that I have not seen for a few years that moved to Manitoulin island. To take pictures of the site and I love the sunsets, which would probably be stunning there.
I live in a beautiful national forest, so I wouldn train travel in the usa t have to travel far to get some great pictures! There s a place I ve been meaning train travel in the usa to photograph, where a deep channel was carved in the mountain for the road.
If I got this camera I would constantly be taking pictures mostly of my baby sisters they re so adorable they would be constant victims of my photos, and my family ofcourse no matter how much they object I will capture the good times. I ve always wanted a camera but my parents tell me I have on in my phone so I really don t need one:) but I don t think it ll be the same. But were going to take a trip to San Fransisco, California and to snap images of a big city and the subterfuge train travel in the usa would be wonderful ( I come from a small country town). The bag is just cute and would be really convenient to carry the camera in and other things.
i would love to take it to our family reunion in nashville tennessee some family train travel in the usa ive not seen in over 35 yrs and some ive never even meet yet i would love to take pictures of everyone train travel in the usa and make an family album to
