Managing Lightroom while traveling just got easier

Published 10 months ago • 1 min read

Hello Reader,

​

Last month, the explanation of my current photo backup routine struck a chord with many people. I received a lot of great feedback and quite a few follow-up questions.

​

I love the questions because they help me to shape future content, and that's just what I'm doing today.

​

Regarding travel backups, one commenter asked how I manage my Lightroom catalog while traveling.

​

Truth be told, I have had this same question MANY times before. It has always been clear that this is a sticking point for people.

​

This week, I finally found the time to tackle the topic and explain my process.

​

This latest guide will answer all your questions and explain the best way to manage your Lightroom catalog while you travel for your next photo adventure or workshop.

​

I hope it's helpful to you.

PS. Did the Nikon shooters among you see these two new lenses I wrote about last week? Z 35mm f/1.2 and Z 28-135mm f/4 PZ.

Hello Reader, A couple of months ago I emailed about the outrageously good teleconverter performance of the Sony 300mm GM lens. Knowing how much I enjoy using this lens compared to my 600mm f/4, it got me thinking: should I buy a second one? I know that sounds crazy, but a pair of them would be lighter and cheaper than a 600mm f/4 lens, and using the teleconverters would give me nice combinations of 300mm, 420mm, and 600mm focal lengths. I decided to pull on this thread a little more, so...
