Travel Resources

I have gathered on this page some information about things that I find useful or/and I use. I only recommend things that I think are good. Please note that I get a small commission on some recommendations, the price for you is the same as if you went to their page directly too.

The stuff I use

The camera I use is Nikon D7000. I have been really happy with my camere and the quality but Nikon don’t manufacture this model anymore. The follower for my camera is Nikon D7100 and it sounds really good one. The features include for example:

  • 24.1 MP DX-format image sensor
  • Shoot up to 6 frames per second for up to 100 continuous shots
  • Wireless sharing and control with WU-1a adapter 
  • ISO range from 100 to 6400
  • 1080p videos with full-time autofocus and built-in stereo mick 

 SanDisk 16GB Memory Card I like to take a lot of pictures, so usually I use minimum 16GB.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 When travelling tablet is useful for downloading books or for using WIFI.
