The Best Gifts to Buy for Photographers in 2018

A photographer loves a good camera. However, the camera is never the only one to account for excellent pictures. It is the accessories that enable any photographer to perform better. We have some excellent gift ideas for your Henry Cartier-Bresson. 

50 mm f/1.8 Lens
Lenses are the must-haves in a photographer’s arsenal. A 50mm f/1.8 lens is a staple in every photographer’s kit; regardless of his or her skill set level. Whether you are a rookie or a pro, if you wish to gather excellent shots specifically whilst traveling, then a 50mm lens is a must-have that comes at a relatively affordable price. With a 50mm f/1.8 lens, your photographer friend can take quicker, smoother and crisper shots. The Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens is just a click away. 

Phantom Camera Bags and Carry Cases
Carrying a camera around is no joke. It is bulky, heavy, and frankly inconvenient to carry out all day in your hands or on your shoulders with the help of camera straps. Backpacks are saviors when it comes to carrying loads. Phantom Camera backpacks are the perfect gift items for any photographer. They come with enough space to accommodate the camera, its accessories, and your laptop. If you wish to give something specific and tailor-made, then Carry Bag by DJI Phantom 3 is the best gift for your photo-geek friend. In addition to that, they are practical, durable, portable, and great to look at. Recent launches feature shock protection designed with water-resistant canvas material for the ultimate solution to any commuting woes.

Tripods
A steady smooth shot is what a photographer lives for. Staged photographs can be very hard to recreate without a tripod because it allows you to use the perfect angle over and over again and promises consistently steady and focused pictures. A light and mobile tripod is perfect to strap on to your back and ideal for traveling. Choose from multiple tripod options and brands by BnW Collections here.

Storage Devices
If there is one thing a photographer can never have enough of, it is storage memory. Storage devices are your safest bet in terms of gifting. SD cards and Adapter sets are a must-have essential that comes at an affordable price and a long-term warranty. Grab yours here.

Lighting Accessories
Lighting can make or break a shot; even if you have the most extraordinaire camera and accessories in the world, if your shot lacks good lighting, you might as well ditch it altogether. For that soft and diffused opulent lighting, a softbox is necessary for every photographer’s arsenal. Softboxes add light to your shot without being stark or sharp. The resultant picture is beautiful, effortless, and focused.

Ring Lights for a Bonus 
For detailed portraits, ring lights are a great gift. Compact and portable with just the right amount of light addition, a ring light is an essential. In contrast, there are instances when you have to block out light. For that purpose, you need reflectors. An excellent gift and the perfect tool to block out the light and for bouncing the flash off of, reflectors add drama to every shot.
