Summary[edit]

Description

Nikon D4 is the most capable, advanced, heaviest and biggest camera I have. My guidebook suggests me to bring a light and small camera, but I ignored it and bring D4 to obtain terrific image quality. And I'm so happy to bring it because I went through a lot of low light situation during my trip and D4 is the one of BEST camera available in the market in low light situation.

NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VR to capture amazing buildings and landscapes in the UK. I purchased this lens for this trip and this lens was certainly a main lens during my trip.

NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G for capturing low light situation as well as you'd like to have some bokeh.

NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8 ED VR II is needed in some situation, say taking pictures The Guard at Buckingham Palace.

Three Danbos to make my photo nice.

BLU TACK is a fantastic product to keep Danbos in specific pose. I actually forgot to bring mine to the trip, and tofu_catgirl gave her one to me. It really came in handy during the trip. I really appreciate her help.

A tripod to enjoy night photography including photos of the stars in the Lake District.

An extra battery in case D4 is running out of battery. D4 has a tremendous battery life though, it came in handy. I've experience so tired once that I fallen asleep without charging a battery.

Two ND filters, one is ND8 for panning during a day and longer exposure shot in evening. Another one is ND1000 for long exposure shot in a day light.

Battery chagers for batteries of Nikon D4 and DP1 Merrill.

Two hard disk drive, one to store my photos and another one to backup them so I won't lose my photo.

An XQD card reader to copy photos from my XQD card to hard disk drives.

A CF card and a CF card reader for extra photo storage.

Also there are DP1 Merrill, Gorillapod and a laptop PC to use XQD card reader and hard disk drives.

I also wanted bring EF 400mm f/5.6L USM to enjoy bird photography in the Lake District, but I was overburden to carry the lens :(

Conclusion: I think I was trying a little bit too hard LOL

Nikon D4は私の持っているカメラの中でも最も高性能で、最も重く、最も大きいカメラです。ガイドブックにはカメラは小さくて軽いものをと書かれていましたが、完全に無視してD4を持っていきました。めったに行けないからできるだけ良い画質で写真を撮りたかったものですから。重かったけど持って行って良かったです。意外に暗い場所も多く、そのトップクラスの高感度性能のおかげで暗い場所でもきれいな写真が撮れました。

NIKKOR 16-35mm f/4G ED VRは英国のすばらしい建物や風景を撮るために購入しました。旅行中の主力のレンズとして立派に活躍してくれました。

NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4Gは暗い場所やボケ味を生かしたい場合に活躍してくれました。

NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8 ED VR IIのような望遠レンズもたまに必要になるわけです。バッキンガム宮殿の近衛兵を撮影する場合とか。

ダンボーくんたちも素敵な写真のアクセントに欠かせません。

BLU TACKはダンボーくんを固定することのできる素晴らしい商品で、日本でも東急ハンズなどの大型店で販売しています。残念なことに自分の家に忘れてきてしまったのですが、tofu_catgirlさんに頂きました。その親切心に感謝感激です。

三脚を持って行って夜景や星空も撮りました。

D4用の予備の電池も持っていきました。D4はとてつもなく電池もちが良いですが、疲れすぎて電池の充電を忘れて眠りに落ちてしまうこともあったので結果としてかなり重宝しました。予備の電池まで充電しておけば、2~3日充電なしでガンガン撮影できます。

Nikon D4用とDP1 Merrill用の充電器も必要ですね。

XQDカードリーダーはカメラで撮影した写真をハードディスクにコピーするために持っていきました。

CFカードとCFカードリーダーも予備の記録メディアとして持っていきました。

写真には写っていませんが、DP1 Merrillとゴリラポッド、そしてXQDカードリーダーやハードディスクを使うためのノートパソコンも持って行ってます。

湖水地方は英国屈指のバードウォッチングに適した場所なのでなんとか超望遠レンズEF 400mm F5.6L USMも持っていこうとしたのですが、あまりにも重すぎて断腸の思いで断念しました。

結論: なんか、いくらなんでもちょっと気合入りすぎな気がする。
