It’s a simple thing, but one that I think we all have to do more of these days. I think as photographers we all know we need a mat to protect our expensive cameras and lenses. That’s the primary reason I bought the mats from www.mats.co.
I love the idea. If we can protect our cameras and lenses, then we are protected from the elements.
The reality is that we are constantly exposed to the elements. So while I love the idea that I can protect my expensive cameras and lenses, it doesn’t necessarily mean that I will. I think most photographers would agree that the best way to protect your expensive equipment is to spend some quality time outdoors. A mat allows you to protect your expensive equipment without spending the extra $200-$500 a month or so.
The idea of a mat is great, but it’s certainly not the only way to protect your expensive lens and camera.
For the most part, I have been using a mat for my photography. A mat is basically a soft cushion that sits on your lens and protects it from scratches and bumps. You can use a mat for both landscape photography and portrait photography. I use a mat for both because it makes it easier to shoot with my camera and without the risk of scratching my expensive lenses. It also creates a sense of protection when I’m out in the elements.
If you’re not using a mat, you can also use a case or even a soft bag. They both protect your camera and lens from scratches and bumps but are also comfortable to use. You can also use a bag to protect your camera from scratches and bumps, especially if you’re using a monopod. It also provides a sense of warmth when you’re out in the elements.
The other reason for using a soft bag (or case) is that it makes it easier to take photos. A hard case will make it easier to take a photo in the rain, or when youre in the dark so your subject can barely see you. Hard cases are also comfortable to wear and protect your lens from scratches.
But bags can be made more comfortable and durable by using a material that has a low coefficient of friction. For example, leather comes in two main types: cowhide and sheepskin. Cowhide is very soft and provides a natural feel when you wear it, whereas sheepskin is very hard and makes your camera feel like it is made of metal.
In a way, it’s similar to the first level of self-awareness. When we take an image or a video, we are not aware of our actions. We know that we’re capturing something, but we don’t know what it is. The same goes for photography.
In fact, we are unaware of our actions and their effects on our environment. All we know is that an image or a video is going to be a success or a failure, and this is what we do with that information (and with our actions, of course). We are, in effect, doing a Google search.
