Iceland trip is in two weeks and I'm honestly panicking about my Z6ii kit weight. I need to pick exactly three essentials but keep getting stuck.
Right now I'm torn between the Peak Design Capture Clip vs a regular strap since the clip looks handy but maybe too heavy on the shoulder? For support, is the PD travel tripod actually worth the $350 or should I just get a $100 Ulanzi carbon one and save the cash? Also debating if I should buy 2 extra batteries or just rely on a high-speed power bank for USB charging in the car. Budget is super tight now and I'm stressed about missing shots because of gear failure. Which trio is the best bet for staying light and fast?

> PD travel tripod actually worth the $350 or should I just get a $100 Ulanzi carbon one Definitely get the Ulanzi MT-20 Carbon Fiber Tripod! Its way lighter and cheaper than the Peak Design Carbon Fiber Travel Tripod while staying super stable. Youll love it!

@Reply #1 - good point! For your remaining gear:
- Peak Design Capture Clip v3 Black
- Nikon EN-EL15c Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Dedicated batteries are safer since power banks won't perform well in Iceland's cold.
