I don’t have a formal gear list published specifically for Cappadocia, but based on what I actually did there, here’s what I’d recommend for travel photography in a place like that:

  1. A good camera you’re comfortable using – I brought my own and used it instead of a tour photographer in Cappadocia
  2. A wide-angle lens for hot air balloons, rooftops and cave hotels
  3. A portrait/zoom lens for classic car and carpet shop shots
  4. Extra batteries and big memory cards (sunrise shoots drain both fast)
  5. Lightweight tripod or travel-sized mini tripod for early-morning rooftop photoshoots
  6. Crossbody camera strap and small day bag so you can move easily around rooftops and streets

Are you planning to shoot more video, photos, or a mix of both when you go?
