Travelfish gear

This is a new section of the Travelfish site, in which we'll be adding reviews and suggestions for gear and nick nacks that might make your holiday a bit easier. Where possible we'll list online retailers through which the gear can be purchased. In some cases -- not all though -- a small comission will be payable to us should you buy stuff.

We've broken this up into different categories to try to make it all a bit more accessible for you. Every item we list gets a post on the Travelfish Gear Forum -- so if you've used something personally, you can add a comment there and it will show up on the relevant page here -- please don't hesitate to be brutally honest when passing your opinion!

Cameras Modern whizz-bang gizmos with face recognition for better soul stealing ... just kidding. Everyone is going digital these days, but just what type of digital camera best suits your needs? ... more

Also, if you've used something that you think was truly awesome, and we don't mention it, please add it into the Gear section of the forum and we'll get it added in here. Thanks!
