The flash is sometimes a dreaded accessory. At first it can instill a little respect ;), however, if you lose your fear of the flash you can discover all its creative capacity. Here you have a complete guide to buy your flash if you don't know where to start ;).

BACKPACK
Sometimes, the success of a photo session does not lie in the camera, nor in the photographer, but in something that has nothing to do with it. This occurs when the session involves a long walk, a trip, etc. It is the backpack, the place where you transport your equipment, and you not only transport it, but also protect it.
Imagine that by not carrying it in a suitable backpack the lens hits itself, or the camera gets wet. Or that it is so uncomfortable that after carrying it 5 km you arrive with back pain or fatigue that you hardly feel like photographing the wonderful spectacle in front of you. A pity, right? And if the equipment breaks down, there are no photos ? . If you need a backpack for your gear, make sure you choose the right one .
