What Equipment do you need to go Bus Spotting?

So you want to go bus spotting but don’t know what equipment you need. Well, I’m a great believer that you don’t need expensive equipment to take photos or make videos. You can take great images and footage on mobile phones now-a-days, but sometimes you need something a little extra to help get the results you want.

This is where some equipment or gear is helpful. I get asked about what I use so here is the bus spotting gear I use.  Some of these are affiliate links which means if you follow and buy I get a small commission, but it won’t cost you anything. Any money we recieve goes towards digitising the images held on slides and negatives in the photo archive.
