Cameras For Hiking And Backpacking

I used this backpacking and camping and have it clipped to my day hiking backpack.

This is the perfect camera take hiking or backpacking. Super pictures every time!

As someone that takes adventure photos, snowboarding, hiking, backpacking, exploring ... I really can’t imagine doing this without thi clip. If fits all my backpack due to 2 different bolt sizes. I can safely and comfortably carry my camera anywhere and have instant access. I've been recommending it to all my colleagues.

I bought this for my family to be able to have peace of mind when I am out solo hiking/backpacking. The features are pretty intuitive and it didn't take long to figure out the basic operations. I use it mainly for the simple check in messages and to have it in case I need to use the SOS for an accident or health emergency (which thankfully I haven't had to use...yet). I like the size and the screen is clear and easy to read even without my glasses on. I do wish that you could do more from the phone app rather than having to go to my laptop for some things but all in all a very good product.

It's a great little tripod, that can actually hold a fair amount of weight, all things considered. I use it backpacking and hiking with my RB67, which is a beast of a camera, and it acquits itself very well. The way it can get low to the ground by positioning the center column at a right angle to the body and splaying the legs is a neat trick--though admittedly this is one time the heavy camera is too much for the poor thing. But it is a travel tripod, after all.

This has become my favorite hiking and backpacking ballhead.  The lightest and most functional one I have ever used.  RRS makes incredibly durable and well-engineered gear, and this is no exception.  Most of my RRS gear is built for durability, but not designed to be lightweight.  The BPC-16 is that rare confluence of RRS-toughness and engineered perfection, coupled with a form factor that enables me to easily carry it on week long trips in the mountains.  The dual function knurled knob that clamps and allows panning is very clever and easy to use.  I highly recommend this to those that need something of this weight and function.  I am using with an A7Riii.

I got this as a lighter alternative to my 10x42 binoculars. I specifically got it to take with me on hiking and backpacking trips. I enjoying being able to get a little bit closer look at animals and natural features. This fits the bill perfectly at just over 1/4 of a pound it is light and gets the job done. Even though this is a 10x25 and only a monocular it is just as bright as and clear as my 10x42 bushnells binoculars that i paid around the same price for.

Strong, versatile, and compact. Will be a great tripod for hiking and backpacking. This is a replacement for my MeFoto tripod which finally wore out.

Going backpacking hiking is always great but lugging around a tripod is not. This thing is tiny. But built well. Without adding the extension it will hold a Canon R6 with non L lenses just fine.

I got this for a 5 night 45 mile backpack trip in the High Sierra so I could get DSLR shots while hiking, not just at camp. It worked great and did not bounce around with the Nikon D750 and 18-35mm G lens I was using. It was a bit difficult to attach it to my full sized backpack strap but it did go on and then was secure for the whole trip. I was using hiking poles and the camera did not get in the way of the poleing motion. I even kept it attached while climbing over boulders on some off-trail passes. My only negative is that the sliding/snapping action did get less smooth after a few days. This could be due to tiny chips in the finish after sliding it in over and over. This is a must have for backpacking with a DSLR. I've been on lots of trips where my big camera sits in my pack all day and only gets used at camp or maybe at lunch and I have a point and shoot in my pocket for quick shots while on the move. I can now get DSLR shots while hiking and even faster than pulling a small camera or phone out of my pocket. The clip is a game changer for hiking and backpacking, the only problem is now I have even more shots to sort through.
