Travel is one of the most enjoyable things in life. Whether it’s travelling to explore or to relax, capturing those moments can be just as important as experiencing it.
In order to get the most out of the video and camera on your smartphone and make your friends wish they were there with your video or shots, here’s a few accessories we saw that can help you and are compact enough to take on your travels.
Microphone – boom mic for iPhone
If you’re capturing video while you’re travelling, one of the most important elements that can make your video more enjoyable is the audio quality. Having great content and visual effects will mean nothing if the audio isn’t clear, or totally distorts the visual appearance.
One way to improve the audio quality is attaching an external mic, like this Boom mic from photojojo.
Stand – Woxom smartphone video stabilizer
Adaptable for both iPhone and Android smartphones, this stand will enable the user to take those hard to reach and angled shots with ease, using the adjustable legs.

Light - The Pocket Spotlight
The best possible light is natural sunlight, but sometimes the moments we want to capture aren’t always during the day. To give your video or images the best possible chance of capturing that amazing moment, a simple add-on LED light can be the solution.
