Alright it is Christmas time again and that’s why we need to talk about some Christmas gift ideas for photographers. So yeah if you are looking for some nice gift ideas here are 5 great things that you can buy.

Tripod
So yeah every photographer needs a tripod but in most cases they are always big and they need a lot of space. And exactly that’s why I really like these MiniTripods. They fit into every camera bag (or even your jacket or pocket) so they are perfect especially for spontaneous photography ideas. As an example lets say you want to take a long exposure shot. In this case such a tripod is really helpful because you can easily set it up to get the shot. Or if you want to take a couple of pictures of yourself or maybe you want to record a time-lapse… you can easily use these kind of tripods to do that. And the good aspect here is these tripods are cheap. So yeah such a mini tripod is actually something that I can highly recommend to check out if you are looking for a nice and cheap gift.

Desk Lamp
But now let’s move on to the second gift idea and this one is a desk lamp. So what I’m talking about is something like the BenQ Screenbar Plus. And no this is not sponsored there are a lot of versions out there that you can check out. But such a lamp is really helpful especially if you want to work in the evening or at night. In this case I can use a little controller to dim the light and I can decide if I want to use warm or cold light. In my opinion that is really nice because you can actually adjust everything until you got the perfect lighting setup for your workspace. On top the overall set up is really easy – you simply mount it to your monitor and connect it via USB to your computer and thats it. So yeah this is actually a really nice gift idea for everyone who works in the evening or at night.

GoPro Chesty
The next gift idea that I want to share with you is for everyone who uses GoPros. And in this case I highly recommend to buy the GoPro Chesty. This is actually one of my favorite GoPro Accessories because it makes it possible to record these Photography POV Behind The Scenes Videos to show how you take photos. And yes there are a lot of cheaper versions out there but I always recommend this one because it is actually the best. In most cases you just get a hard plastic version that is actually really uncomfortable but this one here got this nice soft background which is so fantastic. You actually won’t notice it after some time anymore and it’s so easy to set up. So if you know someone who uses GoPros maybe think about to buy the GoPro Chesty.

SD Cards / Harddrives
And now it’s time for a classic but this classic gift idea is a no brainer. And here I’m talking about SD Cards and Hard-drives. Every photographer needs SD Cards to take photos so you can easily buy one of them and you are set. But here I highly recommend to buy at least 64gb or more because you always need a lot of storage and it’s really annoying if you always have to check how many photos you can take until the you need to switch cards and all these kind of things.

Or another good tip is to buy an external hard drive because every photographer creates backups of their RAW files and here you need a lot of storage. So an additional external hard drive is always a perfect gift idea because it actually helps a lot and on top they aren’t that expensive. So if you are looking for a great gift SD Cards and External Hard Drives are always great options for photographers and filmmaker.

50mm 1.8
But now let’ move on to the next gift idea and gift idea number 5 is a special one and here I’m talking about something that is especially great for all those beginner photographers out there. Most camera brands have a so called nifty fifty in their lens collection and the good old 50mm 1.8 prime lens is one of the best prime lenses to get started. The image quality is really nice and yes this is an f1.8 lens so it’s great for low light situations as well. On top this lens isn’t that expensive. You can get this one here – which is the Canon EF version – for around 80-100€ so it’s actually not that much especially if you compare it to all kind of other lenses that are out there.

If you are interested in some more infos about the 50mm 1.8 definitely check out the this video here – that is my latest video about some reasons why this lens is worth it. So if you know someone who is a beginner photographer maybe think about to buy a 50mm 1.8 because it’s actually a great lens to get started.
