Originally posted by Don Boyd I'm still putting my K20d kit together for landscape work. In addition to filters and tripods, what accessories do you landscape folks use most frequently and why - i.e. remote trigger, L bracket, panoramic bracket, battery grip? Thanks.
-30 Gig of SD
-High end Neutral Density Filters, 4X, 8X and NDX400 (9 stops and $$$).
-Circular Polarizer with the most multicoating you can get. $$$
-A hotshoe bubble level... Trust me it is a must for securing a straight horizon line when mother natures curves are faking you out.
-Pano head... if you are into really BIG panos.
And whenever I am going into remote areas I always have survival kit in case I get injured, consisting of waterproof matches, magnesium flint and knife and a mummy style space blanket and a headlamp (which I have ended up using many, many times because I push the limits of the terrain well into the night too often) and handwarmers. And plenty of water and granola bars.
One thing I have been a recent convert to is carbon fiber tripods. Gitzo 6X's, while expensive are so light and impressively strong and well built that you will probably never have to buy another tripod ever.
