Hi all!

I am a professional photographer from NYC ( michaelgeorgephoto.com ).

During my trip I will be posting (somewhat) daily photos to my Instagram feed @migeophoto

Follow along if you're interested!

Cheers,

MG

When are you starting? Buen camino.

Hi Michael! Great photos on IG - just got an account to follow your live feeds. Just wondering, do you regret not taking your camera as a professional photographer or do you feel pretty satisfied with your iPhone/Instagram shots? I know taking an SLR with multiple lenses would be quite burdensome for the Camino. It won't be for a while until I go on my pilgrimage but have thought about what type of camera to take, whether the iPad is adequate, or at least take a point and shoot. Keep those pictures coming!

Oh ho ho I did not just take my iPhone! I took my film SLR – a Canon Rebel T2. Along with 50mm f/1.8 and 35mm f/2.0 prime lenses. I brought along 35 rolls of film.

And yet my pack was still only 14 lbs! (7-8 kilos).

It was worth it. I would have been quite upset if I didn't bring my nicer camera.

How the heck did you manage keeping your pack that light with a heavier camera, rolls of film, and multiple lenses??? Although I don't go for a while, I have packed my bag to see if I can even manage the backpacking weight and without a camera its already up to 12 lbs. Do share your secret
