Since you already know where you are going, you will have the idea of what you are going to photograph. Let's say that you are on a hiking trip, what you will see is mostly scenery. So, probably you can leave your telephoto lens and pack the wide angle lens for your trip. However, when you are on a trip to Africa, where wild life is your subject, probably you will need that telephoto lens so you can stay away from the lions when you are taking their pictures.

Besides that, have you thought of using a compact digital camera instead of the DSLR? Some point and shoot cameras are build with wide angle lens and high optical zoom. If you are unsatisfied with the pictures, you can always edit them with editing software when you are back from your trip.

3. The right accessories

Now, when you are taking picture during your travel, you will have hard choices of what to keep and what not. Most of the time, you will take a few pictures on the same subject. So, probably you will want to bring more memory cards or a bigger capacity storage media.

Have you ever thought of storage online? Now you can keep your images online and a lot of these services are free. When you need more space, you can always upgrade your account. In this way, you will solve the frustration of giving up any pictures.
