I’m going to keep this brief and to the point. Yeah. I am. Seriously. Well I’ll try to. The date is now Wednesday, November 28th (unless you’re in Australia or Japan for instance… it may be the 29th). You are leaving for Florida (unless you live in Florida, silly) within the next few days. You’ve done most of the laundry and that includes washing the new matching Fab 5 shirts you bought for the entire family. There’s a schedule of meets you want to attend so you can introduce your boyfriend to your Internet pals. No matter how many times Grandma has been told, she still doesn’t understand why you have Disney Dollars in your wallet.
Suffice it to say you are nearly ready for MouseFest. I want to help you with your camera packing list and offer advice to those of you who bought or are planning to buy a new camera before you arrive at the airport. Yes, I’m talking to you.
Packing List for a Digital Camera:
camera
battery & charger (converter if from outside USA)
spare batteries
memory cards (take at least 2 in case 1 becomes corrupted)
camera bag
manual
Packing List for 35mm or APS Cameras:
camera
batteries
film
camera bag
manual
ALWAYS keep your film in your carry-on bag. Any film that is ISO 800 or higher should be handed to a TSA. Ask for a hand inspection of your film. It doesn’t matter if the film was shot, so long as it hasn’t been developed, it can be ruined.
If you are taking a new camera with you try to do some test shots before you leave home. There’s always the slim chance your new camera will have a defect. Be sure to read your manual even if you can’t do it until you are on the plane. If you’re familiar with cameras then you should have a fairly easy time figuring out the basics such as reviewing your photos, changing flash modes, and quality levels.
If you have questions or need help with your camera, please feel free to ask me for help at the Mega Mouse Meet. I’ll be at the AllEars® table. How can you recognize me? I’m the girl in this photo. If you can tell me who the guy is, I’ll have a surprise for you!
