There is nothing quite like setting off on the road knowing that you are fully loaded and all your overlanding gear is on board. While we don’t engage is extreme overlanding many of the same issues can occur like punctures, dead batteries or getting bogged down out on the trail. We keep our gear selection to a minimum, only including what we need as essentials.
Below we have a breakdown [subject to constant change!] of our camping gear, tools and what we carry in the vehicle, smaller items and our photography setup. You can also find some close up reviews and more details of some of the gear we use on our Youtube channel
Essential gear for overlanding, we choose to carry some of the basics as our rig is pretty simple, gear that will get us [or others] out of a situation like dead batteries, getting bogged down or a flat tyre. Even a basic selection of tools is practical to have as well as providing peace of mind.
Smaller items get stowed away in the back of the vehicle or under the seats etc. Items such as duct tape can be extremely handy as is anything that will ‘tie’, a torch is a must as is a decent knife for multi purpose use.
A list of our camera gear, leaving the studio setup behind we thin down our camera equipment to fit everything into one backpack. Besides from DSLR’s we usually carry a couple of tripods for landscape and long exposure images as well as four lenses [from 10 – 200mm]. The Fuji XQ1 is handy to keep in the front of the vehicle and we have recently invested more into the Fuji system with the X100v.
We are still gathering up our camping gear – a full list will be here Autumn 2022
