Ticking off every destination on your bucket list is a noble endeavor, one that'll require major accessories to get you through every flight and afternoon spent touring it up. Enter Tracy Foster, who was inspired to create Ona, a company that handcrafts beautiful camera bags and accessories, while traveling in South Africa. Sick of looking like a tourist with typical camera gear or scratching a precious DSLR screen with makeshift cases, Tracy returned from her trip and got to work on Ona, which means "to experience with the eyes" in Swahili, which is what she calls the essence of photography and style.
Here, Tracy takes us through the gadgets and camera accessories on her gift-giving list, with a special nod to all the fashionable photographers roaming the world.
Camera Bag
The Ona Prince Street Leather Camera Bag ($389) will be an instant classic in your recipient's life. The messenger-style bag not only fits a camera body, two lenses, and personal items like a wallet, it also has room for an 11-inch laptop or tablet. Also available in waxed canvas for $269.
Portable Projector
Share your favorite photos of the year or have a movie night wherever you go with this HDMI Pocket Projector ($300), which connects to most smartphones, tablets, computers, and cameras.
