I have an opportunity to go to a couple abandoned yards with some photographers from an urban exploration group in late August. We're planning an all day event, shooting a place called "Fort Ord", and another place named "Impossible City."
I've never done this sort of stuff. My only wide lens is also quite slow, and along with the light conditions being spotty indoors, I'm expecting to be fully tripoded the whole trip.
Here's what gear I'm planning on bringing:
Camera,
Tamron 18-200 f3.5-5.5
Canon 50 f1.4
Slik 700DX Tripod (heavy, but sturdy)
2 Batteries + car charger accessory
Cabled shutter release,
Polarizing filter.
Extension tubes (not planning on using, but I know I'll see something if I leave them)
Lens Pens + dust cloth.
2x 2gb cards (~160photos each)
Am I missing anything? Anything I should rent for the day?
Can I get some advice/tips? I'm not very good at landscape photography, and I can imagine this being similar in terms of framing. |
