I usually have a camera with me no matter how far I travel. I enjoy taking a lot of pictures. I usually take a lot more than I save as I check them when I return. I carry a camera on hiking trips, going out of state or across the city. It is pretty likely that I will have a camera with me wherever I go!

Most importantly, the cameras nowsaday are particularly light and tiny, so we can bring it all along with us.

I never really have a digital camera with me when im traveling. I used to, but i found it hard getting the pictures off of my camera onto the computer, so now i just take my cell phone with me. It has a camera on it, so as soon as i take a picture, i can email it to myself, and voila! its on the computer. haha. Im sure a camera would be easier if i could figure out how to work the memory card reader, but thus far no luck.

I will, because I like taking photos on vacation, we can take some beautiful pictures when the scenery is good. And we can see the pics when we are old, it's a good thing to recall our past memory. If we didn't take camera, I think this nothing fun for our journey. Happy mylotting!

I think nowsaday carrying a camera during travels is a must to everyone, if one has a camera than one must bring it when travelling. I will bring my digitial camera, and my hubby will bring his whole camera set, including lens, the body and a tripod.

Cat and DVD - Cat and DVDS
I like using my digital camera and I always carry it in my bag, whether I travel or not. There are certain times that you will see some interesting things while on the road. I like to take pictures of landscapes, sceneries and touristic spots as well. I also like taking silly pictures sometimes like the picture I attached, I saw a vendor selling pirated DVDs together with his pet. So I asked him if he was also selling his cat.

I would feel lost without my camera. When traveling it is one of the most important things that I pack. it has a great zoom on it so it is ideal for photographing wildlife. It is digital and I have all the memory cards that it needs. I tend to take at least 100 photos on each of the trips that I do. I keep my travel photos in albums that I treasure.

Well if take into consideration a camera phone, then yes I do. This is indeed the reason why I upgraded my mobile phone to what it is now. Its a little bit expensive but the one of the reason why is that I wanted to have a phone with a high megapixel camera. Its the samsung omnia and the camera has a 5 migapexel specs. So it does have a good quality picture output.

I always carry a camera when I travel. Mostly, because I'm very into photography and I love my SLR. Also you never know what unexpected things you might see and want to capture. I see interesting things all the time even when I'm not on vacation and I always have the urge to snap a shot, and then I realize I don't have my camera. So yes vacation wise - ALWAYS!

I always carry a camera! I always seem to see something beautiful on my travels. Otherwise I take pictures of me and my friends. Facebook pictures! Haha. But seriously, remember to enjoy the moment more than the picture of the moment. Live in the moment- carpe diem- seize the day!

I always carry my camera. Sometimes I have a picture overdoseand sometimes I´m so moved by something that I forget to take a picture. But I even try to take pictures when things are getting out of control. I was in Orlando when the hurricane Charlie passed a block or two from where I was. I tried to take pictures until the last moment. The ones that would have been the best were horrid: I had the reflection of the glass of the windows.

Yes, definitely. I always have a camera with me when I am visiting an interesting place or attending an event. I think pictures are great and a wonderful way to remember good times. It's also a great way to share your experiences with other people who weren't there.

I take my camera and lens when I travel, when I go out for the day, there is not many times you would find me without my camera along. You never know what you might see along the way, even on an ordinary day. I have gotten some of my best shots when I wasn't even really planning on taking any pictures. I've learned to expect the unexpected in life, and that means in photography as well.

Yup, we often carry our digital camera during our visits to foreign countries. It's nice to keep some memories of places we have been, people we met during our travel - I don't know when we would go back to these places again.

Yes, I'm pretty much like you too! I always bring a camera with me whenever I got to places such as malls, parks, or just anywhere. I always have it with me because you'll never know when it might come in handy. Special moments might occur unexpectedly, right? Happy myLotting!

YES! I always carry my camera when i travel! Just in case I see something I think is pretty or I find my son doing something outrageously silly. Plus I like to keep track of everyplace I have gone too.

My camera is always in my purse. It doesn't matter if I am traveling or not I am always ready to take pics. Before digial came out I made sure that I always had about 4-5 rolls of film for my camera every time I went on vacation. Even if it isn't a big vacation. I think bringing a camera is very important so you can always look back on the joys of all your travels.
