Hi all, this popped in my email this week and I thought it was very helpful and might help anyone thinking of taking photos during their Camino. Some of the suggestions include more gear than most would take on the Camino (not sure I want to lug a tripod <grin>) but other ideas are terrific, for an iPhone, point and shoot, or a DSLR.

Disclaimer: I have no connection to COOPH. Just liked the tips here.

Interesting and thank you for the post but a tripod, laptop, extra hard drives, a sling etc!!. It is a bit over the top. I have walked around 9,000km in the last four years, 8000 km of them with a nikon d80 dslr and zoom lens. Total weight 1.2kg I use a optech harness and sometimes a good quality gorilla pod. The camera is with me all the time and the harness means I don't find the weight (I might look a bit ridiculous).
