This is The Digital Story Podcast #967, Oct. 1, 2024. Today's theme is "Start With Your Bag, Then Work Backwards." I'm Derrick Story.

Opening Monologue

It's a law of nature that any horizontal surface in the home must have stuff on it. And so it goes for our camera bags as well. If there's room inside, we will put something there. So if you want to travel lighter, get a smaller bag. I'll explain more, plus other stories, in today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Start With Your Bag, Then Work Backwards

In just a few hours, I depart for Durango, CO. for our early fall workshop. Since I'm making a two-day drive from Northern CA. instead of flying, I have a little more room for gear than my previous trip to Alaska.

But that doesn't mean that I want to fill up the car with stuff I don't need. I have things for the workshop - ice chest, refrigerator, water service, food, etc. - plus my suitcase and gear for the road. So my camera bag turns out to be the same size as what I flew with to Vancouver.

How do I pack tight and keep it light? It all starts with the bag.

I'm using the 18.5 L Lowepro Trekker Lite BP 150 AW Backpack ($124).

• Main opening with number 10 zipper and a configurable interior with a 60/40 split.
• Soft top section holds your travel necessities.
• Lower half protects your equipment with an integrated camera insert.
• Construction and multi-access design allows access from the side without removing the insert, which is safely connected to the inside of the bag with a strap.
• Multi-functional accessory straps allow you to carry the insert separately like a shoulder bag, or attach it to your chest.
• Use the neck or chest strap to carry your camera around your neck.
• Separate back pocket that accommodates a 14.2" MacBook Pro.
• Generous mesh water bottle holder.
• Lots of grab handles.

By sticking to 18.5 L, I can have all my valuable gear with me, whether I'm in a restaurant, cab, bus, under the seat in the plane, or hustling from terminal to terminal.

A bigger bag would mean more weight and less portability. That's why I start with the bag size I want, then work backwards.

So much has changed with my camping over the years, but the biggest improvement happened when I moved my tent off the ground and relocated it to the top of my car. There are many reasons for this adjustment, and photography is in there among them. I want to start with the tent itself, because you might have difficulty imagining what I'm talking about.

What Is a Roof Top Tent?

The TentBox Go is a 73-pound folding tent that mounts on the roof racks of my VW ID.4. Collapsed, it is 18" high, allowing me to park the car in the garage. Set up, it is 45" tall with a 90" x 45" base that looks like a trampoline. I have a matching closed-foam air mattress that goes on top of the base, and the combination has provided me with the most comfortable night's sleep of my entire camping career.

The first question that people ask me when they see the TentBox Go on my car is: "How do you get up there?" The kit comes with a collapsible ladder that hooks on to the side of the platform. I climb four rungs up and roll into the tent.

There are windows on three sides plus a skylight. Each side window has a zippered screen to keep bugs out at night, and can be opened freely during the day. This provides an elevated panoramic view of my location, which can be anywhere that I'm able to park the car.

All of my gear stays below, locked up at night. The kitchen is configured in the back hatch area. All I have to do is open the rear boot and everything is there to prepare my next meal.

Camera gear, solar power station, and other technical items are on the back seat or on the floor. If I need to grab a quick photo, I know exactly where my bag is and can access it immediately.

There are removable black screens on the inside of the VW's windows so passersby can't see in the car. I usually have a sunshade positioned in the front window.

Being able to camp anywhere I can park the car goes beyond convenience. It's also a secret weapon for photography.

In addition to a bedroom, the TentBox Go is also a rooftop studio.

From this vantage point, I can photograph sunrises through one window and sunsets out the other. And instead of waiting to return to the darkroom for processing, I can open the laptop and work on the pictures from my picturesque second-story studio. It's fun and functional.

Details About Setup and Maintenance of the TentBox Go

The tent and aluminum frame arrive in a large, single box. Even though the final configuration weighs 73 pounds, it feels heavier when all packed up. I had to drag it by the packing straps from the front porch to the garage.

Since I already had a camping trip on the books, I wanted to build this thing as quickly as possible so I could start testing it before having to depend on it in the middle of nowhere. My brother-in-law agreed to come over on a Saturday and help me with the project.

We both watched the assembly video a couple of times before our meeting. I pulled the car out of the garage to give us plenty of room for our workshop. The video says to allow 90 minutes to assemble and mount the TentBox Go on the top of the car. Three hours later, we joked that they must have meant 90 minutes per person.

Much like a complicated Ikea project, we had to take our time and double-check our work along the way. We would watch a video snippet, and then execute that particular task.

We felt there was a little sleight-of-hand involved with our instructor. He would say, "do this," then instantly be at the next stage while we hit rewind trying to figure out our misstep. But with patience, we too achieved success.

The TentBox Go is well designed, both for its use during camping, but also for living securely atop the car. But that final stage, attaching it to the roof racks, was a bit more difficult than we anticipated.

Their concept was clear and easy. Use four brackets to attach the tent platform to the roof racks. Each bracket had four long bolts and matching nylon-lined nuts. A spanner wrench was included in the kit, but we needed a second one so we could both work at the same time.

Because the bolts had such great length, it took a long time to ratchet on each nut. To say it was slow-going is an understatement. And of course, this final stage comes after a few hours of assembly.

We did secure all eight bolts, and the tent is steady as a rock on top of the car, even at 70 MPH. But it does raise an issue to be considered. What about the end of the season when you want to remove and store the TentBox Go? The tedious process of removing all eight bolts feels daunting at best. More on that later in the article.

Car Mileage and the TentBox Go

This leads to the second most common question folks ask me: "How does it affect your car mileage?"

When you drive an electric vehicle, kWhs per mile is a huge consideration. Car manufacturers consider every detail to get the greatest distance from each kilowatt. The aerodynamic design down to the wheel covers is fine-tuned. Surely, attaching a wedge-shaped tent to the top isn't what they had in mind.

When I studied the tent configuration I noticed that there was 6" of clear space between the top of the car and the bottom of the tent. In my mind, this meant that the basic airflow over the car remained somewhat the same. The question was: How much drag on top of that would the tent create?

The results were fascinating. I kept careful logs for two months.

Prior to the tent, the car averaged 3.3 miles per kWh. This includes summer, winter, air conditioning, heating, freeway driving, around town, and along mountain roads.

With the TentBox Go mounted atop the VW, I'm still averaging 3.3 miles per kWh if I keep the speed below 60 MPH. On a recent slow-going, windy road Highway 1 camping trip, I averaged 3.7 miles per kWh.

On the freeway, if I raise my speed to 70 MPH or more, my efficiency drops down to 2.7 miles per kWh. That's substantial, and it would notably decrease my range over a long trip.

I did some quick math for a long road trip with mostly highway miles. If I drive at the speed I normally prefer, 72-75 MPH, I would lose approximately 35 miles of range in-between charges. This is a tolerable compromise for adventures within a 500 mile radius. But for longer, multi-day driving excursions, I would have to factor in more time for charging.

The bottom line for me is: over the last two months is that I've slowed down on the freeway, moving from the fast lane to the middle part of the road. By doing so, I'm getting an all-around 3.3 miles per kWh with the TentBox Go on top.

But for a longer, multi-day trip to Durango, CO, where camping isn't involved, I decided to remove the TentBox and gain back the extra range. Initially, I wanted to keep it up there because I like the idea of being able to stop anywhere and set up camp. But since my destination is a cabin, the wiser decision was to leave my rooftop tent behind.

Removing and Storing the TentBox Go

Before my long trip to Colorado from Northern California, I reluctantly removed the TentBox Go from atop the ID.4. Instead of using the included spanner wrench to remove the nylon-lined nuts, I opted for a long socket and ratchet. This was a good move. It only took me 20 minutes to remove all 8 nuts and slide the bolts off the rail.

Before the next step, I marked the rails with the positioning of the TentBox on my roof racks so I could quickly reinstall it before my next camping trip. I also measured with a ruler, and took pictures of everything. This should take the guesswork out of reinstallation.

The entire unit is resting on its side in the garage. I'm guessing that it will only take about half an hour to reinstall it. I did need a second person to help me lift it off the car. And I will need help again to put it back up there.

Final Thoughts

I can't wait to go camping again. Having an upstairs bedroom on top of the car, with a patio coming off the side, has revolutionized my outdoor adventures.

As for design improvements, I would very much like a faster mounting system instead of the long bolts with nylon-secured nuts. I think the cover could have a smoother finish with less wind resistance too. That might help my Miles per kWh mileage. But other than those two wishes, I have to say that this lightweight, easy-to-set-up tent is a joy for relaxing during the day, and a good night's sleep once the campfire is extinguished.

The TentBox Go Roof Top Tent is available for $1,199. I also highly recommend the accessory fitted mattress ($125) for that extra layer of comfort.

Opening Monologue

I've been waiting for this AI shoe to drop, and now that it has, I'm loving this discussion. With the announcement of the iPhone 16, Apple put its stake in the ground regarding built-in AI for smartphone photography. And their position differs significantly from Google's and Samsung's. Today, we take a closer look at the two approaches, and think about which one we're most comfortable with. All of this, and more, on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

This is The Digital Story Podcast #965, Sept. 17, 2024. Today's theme is "Let's Get Real: A Smartphone-Only in Alaska is Ridiculous." I'm Derrick Story.

Opening Monologue

Alaska is geological wonder, seafaring history, indigenous culture, goldrush, hardship, wildlife, and wild west. It is truly bigger than the life most of us have ever experienced. Alaska is awe-inspiring, soaked to the bone, and warmed by Salmon bisque and fresh-baked bread. And if you're ever lucky enough to visit, take the right gear. And I don't mean just a rain jacket and boots. I'll explain more on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Let's Get Real: A Smartphone-Only in Alaska is Ridiculous

Before I get to camera gear, which is the primary topic of today's show, I want to talk a little Alaska in general. Because if you're thinking of going, there are some things you should know.

First, if you're cruising, be sure to include Glacier Bay. It's only accessible by water, and you need a captain that knows what he/she is doing. I recommend Holland America. They work closely with the U.S. Forest Service, the Indigenous tribes, and are focused on education as well as enjoyment. They have a long history in Alaska, they have the prime slips for docking while other lines often have to tender to shore.

I recommend a starboard stateroom for inside passage trips, although port side is fine most of the time. Pay extra for a balcony. Your photo library will thank you.

When in port, get outside city limits. You'll usually have plenty of time to explore the towns, but wandering beyond is where the wonder resides. Excursions led by locals in small vans is the way to go.

And finally: Gear up! You'll need real boots, rainwear, backpack with all-weather cover, and a camera that is not afraid of the elements. I was walking around in downpours as happy as a seal in a salmon pond - but only because I was prepared for the elements.

Now, let's get to camera gear. The bulk of my shots were recorded with the Nikon Zf and Nikkor 28-400mm zoom. I loved not having to change lenses in the pouring rain or blustery winds. I did use the 26mm prime for some interiors, but just a few times. Here's my focal length list:

20mm - 6, 26mm - 49, 28mm - 105, 30mm-70mm - 180, 71mm-105mm - 75, 106mm-200mm - 94, and 201mm-400mm - 70. I pre-culled my shots, so only the images I like made it in to Capture One Pro. There are hundreds more frames on the memory cards that will get backed up, but not added to my working library.

I have 121 images in my 3-Star Collection. These are my favorites. 40 of them were recorded with focal lengths beyond 120mm. I also have a collection of B&W photos captured with the Zf using Deep Tone Monotone or Tri-X. (They are amazing out of the camera.)

Resolution is 6048x4032. All the images were geotagged in realtime via Snapbridge. And ISOs crept as high as 25,600.

Now why the data dump? Because this 10-day photo shoot would have been impossible with my iPhone 15 Pro Max. I did take 140 pictures with my iPhone, but they're the stuff you would imagine: selfies, meals, signs, and grab shots. I wouldn't want to come home with only those images.

And yet, even on the photo excursions that I attended, over half the people with shooting with smartphones only. I was on one trip in the outskirts of Ketchikan, where I had the only interchangeable lens camera.

The photo guides did a great job of showing iPhone photographers tips and techniques to squeeze the most out of their cameras. I often wandered off on my own and worked the locations with the Nikon.

I know I'm speaking to the choir here. But I also know that it's tempting to rely on a smartphone more than we should.

I had this moment in Vancouver, B.C. It was twilight. I was sitting on a balcony on the 15th floor of the Blue Horizon Hotel, gazing at the beauty of downtown. A waxing moon rose over a modern apartment building. I extended the zoom to 400mms and captured the scene beautifully.

I then switched to the Tri-X B&W mode and zoomed out to 28mms for a city coming to life in the approaching evening.

As I looked at the images on the LCD, I remember thinking, "I'm so glad I have this camera right now."

Smartphones are wonderful. And they are a fantastic backup camera for documenting life as it soars by. But if you want your pictures to look different than everyone else's, there's nothing like a real camera. And never has that been more true than these days.

Print Black & White Like a Pro

I'm going to divide this discussion into three major parts: your inkjet printer, paper, and computer settings.

Printer

• Best if you have at least one gray ink to accompany your black ink.
• You can let the printer"manage" the colors. ICC profiles not required.
• Newer printers have excellent driver software.
• Pro models may have Advanced B&W Settings.
• Consumer models may have a slimmed-down version of B&W settings.
• I'm getting excellent output from a Canon G620 tank model with one gray.

Paper

• I use Red River paper.
• The type of stock you choose is very important.
• The white of your paper will be the white of your photo.
• Cool Tone Paper: Arctic Polar Luster, UltraPro Satin/Gloss, Polar Matte.
• Warm Paper: Palo Duro Satin, Aurora Art Natural, Blanco Matte Canvas.
• Glossy and Satin papers can achieve deeper blacks than Matte surfaces.

Computer and Software

• Dim your monitor to 50 percent when editing images for printing.
• Make a virtual copy of your master and label it. eg. 5"x7" satin print.
• Crop your virtual copy to the paper dimensions that you're going to use.
• Experiment with B&W presets, Silver Efex Pro, and DxO Film Pack.
• Selecting proper Media Type is critical: luster, glossy, matte, etc.
• Use "Best" quality setting for final print.
• Let prints dry down for 10 minutes before making any judgements.

I recommend that when you get a print you like, note all the settings you used on the back of the print and keep it in your paper box. That way you'll have a great starting point for that surface the next time you print.
