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.

 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
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).

Hola, I gearing up to start my 1st CdS and have seen people recommended sleeping bag liners to protect against bed bugs. Do these help or is it a myth? Should I add the extra weight of bringing one?
Michael @wisepilgrim had mentioned a new feature that he was developing for Wise Pilgrim, and it looks like it is now in operation. You can check the app and see in real time how many beds are...
Well…… about $400 usd in socks and liners later and about 160 miles. I live in California near the Sierra mountains so we have some good trails and heat- I wanted to find my perfect combination...
