1.1 Travel Vlogging Cameras
How To Choose A Vlogging Camera
When it comes to travel vlogging, you should look for a camera that ideally has the following eleven qualities:
- It has a fully articulated screen (flip screen)
- It has good continual autofocus while recording video
- It has good focus priority through face recognition
- It has touched to focus
- It has good low-light performance
- It has an external mic jack and a hot/cold shoe bracket
- It has optical image stabilization
- It is lightweight and portable
- It has a good battery life
- It is durable and weather-sealed
- It has hyper-lapse/timelapse/slow-motion shooting modes
For more information on why a lot of these features are ideal to have in a vlogging camera, check out my post on the Top 15 Best Cameras for Vlogging 2020 .
Cameras That Are Good For Travel Vlogging
Considering my list on what to look for in a travel vlogging camera, I’ve prepared a table below of thirteen cameras I’d recommend for travel vlogging:
| Camera | Release Date | Camera Type | Flip Screen | Mic Port | Price |
|---|
| CanonEOSM50 | 
| February2018 | Mirrorless | Fully Articulated | Yes | $- |
| PanasonicLumixDC-GH5S | 
| January2018 | Mirrorless | Fully Articulated | Yes | $$$ |
| GoProHero6 Black | 
| September2017 | Action Camera | No | Yes | $- |
| CanonEOSM100 | 
| August2017 | Mirrorless | Flip-Up | No | $ |
| CanonEOS6D Mark II | 
| June2017 | Mid-size SLR | Fully Articulated | Yes | $$ |
| CanonEOS RebelSL2 | 
| June2017 | Compact SLR | Fully Articulated | Yes | $ |
| CanonEOS RebelT7i | 
| February2017 | Mid-size SLR | Fully Articulated | Yes | $- |

| February2016 | Mid-size SLR | Fully Articulated | Yes | $$ |
Parental Control Software
| CanonPowerShotG7 X Mark II |  | February2016 | Compact | Flip-Up | **No** | $ |Lenses That Are Good For Travel Vlogging
Every travel vlogger should have a wide-angle lens. Wide-angle lenses fit much more of a scene into your camera frame, making it ideal for capturing establishing shots. You’ll also need a wide-angle lens if you plan on holding your camera out in front of yourself with an extended arm to get selfie footage.
As a travel vlogger, you’ll also want to show some close-up shots of the various subjects in your scene. If you don’t mind walking up to these subjects, the lens I recommend for this is a standard lens.
If, however, you want to be able to shoot these close-up shots from a farther distance, you’ll need a telephoto lens.
But you probably don’t want to carry and switch so many lenses as you travel, right? A convenient solution is to get a zoom lens that covers a wide range of focal lengths. For example, travel vlogger Sam Kolder shoots with a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 lens – that’s a wide-angle lens, standard lens, and telephoto lens all in one lens!
If most of your travel video shooting will be done handheld, you should also definitely look for a lens equipped with optical image stabilization.

1.2 Travel Vlogging Accessories
Camera Accessories That Are Good For Travel Vlogging
 |
1. Tripod Record stabilized shots and timelapse footage with a tripod. |
|---|
| 
| 2. GorillaPod SLR-Zoom with Ballhead Wrap your camera around structures that your regular tripod can’t stay on. You can also hold out your camera further away from you using the GorillaPod as a selfie stick to fit in more of your background into your selfie shot. |
| 
| 3. Stabilizing Gimbal Get super-smooth shots with a stabilizing gimbal. |
| 
| 4. On-Camera LED Light Is there not enough light? Add an LED light to your camera’s hot/cold shoe. |
| 
| 5. Neutral Density (ND) Filters Is it too bright outside to have your aperture wide open but you still want to get that cinematic look ? You can add ND filters to your lenses so that you can do just that in very bright conditions. |
| 
| 6. Camera Cleaning Kit While traveling, you can get all kinds of unwanted substances on your lens and in your camera like dust, dirt, fingerprints, raindrops, snow, and sand, to name a few. If you bring along a portable camera cleaning kit with you on your travels, you can remove those things immediately so that your shots won’t be affected. |
| 
| 7. Drone When it comes to travel vlogging, wide shots that establish the scene and setting are important. Drones are great for taking these kinds of wide shots from high places that you would not be able to get to by foot. |

PART 2: TRAVEL VLOGGING IDEAS
If you’re needing some travel video ideas either to get you started or to bring some fresh content into your channel, here are ten travel video ideas that you can try.
1. Travel Vlog
Travel vlogging, the kind where you film yourself just going about your day in a different part of the world, is a great way to not only document your travel moments and memories for yourself, but also a great way to share your experience with others.
Rather than being too picky with your video shots and possibly ending up with a lack of footage to work with, shoot as much as you can.
Try to capture your thoughts and feelings around the things you taste, smell, see and hear. Sharing these details can help your viewers feel more like they’re with you on your travels.
2. Tips or Tricks for Traveling
Although learning from mistakes during your travels can be a rewarding experience, most people want to avoid them and, rather, enjoy their trip as much as they possibly can. After all, travel, for most people, happens in intervals that seem too short. You can help this sizable group by offering travel tips and tricks.
Prepare a list of tips and tricks, a shot list of all the footage you’ll need to go along with those tips, and then capture all your footage. As you go through your list, you can then cut away to your associated travel shots.
3. Video Tour of a Location
Many people are curious about different parts of the world and would love to join a tour without the high cost of flights, hotels, meals, and admission tickets. Give them that experience by making a video tour.
4. Review An Attraction or Experience
A lot of travelers having a limited amount of time and money to enjoy their chosen travel destinations want to know which attractions and experiences to prioritize and which ones to skip. Help them make their decision by making a video review.
5. Timelapse Videos
All you need in addition to your camera is a tripod to get started with making timelapse videos. Your tripod stabilizes your shot as your camera captures all the changes that take place in a given location.
When your footage is sped up, your viewers can appreciate all the changes that take place that they may not have had the patience to sit through in real-time. It’s also interesting to observe the passage of time in a different way.
6. Average Daily Cost
Before going on a trip, many people try to make a budget and figure out how much money to exchange into foreign currency. Making a good budget and getting just enough foreign cash, though, requires you to know how much, on average, things cost.
Make a helpful video on the average cost of daily expenses including meals and transportation like Paolo did in the above video “Average Daily Cost in Tokyo Japan | Is it Expensive?.” His video actually helped me a lot when I was trying to come up with a budget for my recent trip to Japan.
7. Interview Locals
People don’t travel only to see popular attractions. A lot of people travel to connect with and understand people from different parts of the world.
Interviewing locals and sharing their thoughts can help to provide that kind of connection.
8. What’s in My Backpack?
Packing for a trip can say a lot about who you are as a person because it involves prioritizing items based on your personal values.
For your next trip, share a little part of yourself with your audience through a video about the things you’ve packed in your bag.
9. Talk About Your Own Home City
When you’ve lived in your own home city for so long, you might forget that people all over the world may marvel at the things you take for granted because all those things just happen to be at your doorstep.
Take advantage of the expert that you already are in your own home city and make an informative video for others who are taking a trip there.
10. How To Become a Travel Vlogger
After you’ve done a lot of travel vlogging and learned so much along the way, you can make a video about how to be a travel vlogger.
In the above video, Andrew Santos teaches how to make a travel video, all while hilariously poking fun at many of the cliché trends in the travel genre.
PART 3: TRAVEL VIDEO EDITING
Video Editing Software

| OpenShot Video Editor (Windows, Mac, Linux) ShotCut (Windows, Mac, Linux) Hitfilm Express (Windows, Mac) VideoPad Video Editor (Windows) Lightworks (Windows, Mac, Linux) VSDC Video Editor (Windows) Machete Video Editor Lite (Windows) Avidemux (Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD) Read more about each software in our post about The Best Free Video Editing Software for YouTube – Top 8 Reviews . | Wondershare Filmora X (Windows, Mac) - start at $49.99 for one year license and Free trial Final Cut Pro (Mac) - $299.99, Free trial Vegas Movie Studio (Windows) - $49.99 |
Travel-Themed Video Effects
If you use Filmora Video Editor, you can also take advantage of a variety of travel-themed video effects packs, like the one shown in the above video, filled with titles, transitions, filters, overlays, and other visual elements.
For my recent trip to Japan, I actually used Filmora Effects’ Japanese set.

At the 2:48 mark of the above video, I used a shoji door transition.

PART 4: TRAVEL VLOGGING TIPS
Vlog/Life Balance
- Give yourself more time at each location if you want to have a good balance between getting the shots you need and enjoying your present moment.
Theft Prevention
- Carry a backpack that doesn’t have zippers on the outside that thieves can easily get to.
- If you’re shooting with a flashy smartphone, make it look less appealing to thieves with a grotesque smartphone case, like an Otterbox.
- In locations with high crime, pre-plan the shots you want to capture and take your SLR camera out of your bag only to take those shots. Otherwise, keep your SLR camera concealed.
- Never leave your equipment unattended in a visible area, not even in a locked car.
Pre-Production and Planning
- Before shooting, make a shot list of all the footage you need.
- Have all your filming equipment that needs to be calibrated all calibrated and ready to use.
Onscreen Performance
- Look into your lens, not the projected image of yourself on your camera’s flip screen.
- Show a lot of energy as you film yourself.
- If you’re nervous about talking to the camera in public, keep your talking head clips short and gradually build your way up to longer clips. You can break up longer sentences by saying a few words from one scene, saying a few more in another, and finishing off your last words, again, in another scene. Later, in editing, you can stitch all of those clips together to make one fluid sentence.
- If you’re nervous about talking to the camera in public, you can capture your talking headshots later when you find a more secluded space.
Audio Recording
- Silence everything you don’t want your mic to record.
- Put your mobile phone in airplane mode.
- Block wind from reaching your mic with windscreens and dead cats.
- Upgrade your mic.
- Adjust your levels.
- Get close to the sound you are wanting to record.
Check out 10 Recording Tips to Get The Best Sound From Your Microphone for more audio recording tips.
Filming
- To avoid crowds, wake up early and grab your footage early while everyone else is still sleeping or getting ready.
- Capture wide shots, medium shots, and close-up shots for better coverage.
- Use the Sun Seeker app to set up your sunrise/sunset shots better.
- If your camera can record 4K footage, record in 4K all the scenes that you want to zoom in closer later in editing without losing quality (your video project in editing has to be at 1920p x 1080p for this to work).
Stabilization
- If you’re trying to get shots with movement by walking, rather than walking as you normally would walk with your knees bent for steadier shots.
- If you’re shooting something in front of your handheld, lean your arm against your own body for steadier shots.
- Use a stabilizing gimbal with your camera.
Timelapse/Hyperlapse
- Select scenes where you can see a lot of change over time (not a still building in front of a cloudless smoggy sky).
- Set longer intervals for scenes that change very slowly over time.
- Pre-set your focus. Turn autofocus off.
- Shoot time-lapses/hyper-lapses in manual mode to prevent the flickering that occurs with changing light conditions in automatic settings.
- If your camera is set on a tripod in a fixed position, turn your optical image stabilization off.
- If you aren’t holding onto your camera as it’s in the middle of making a timelapse video, at least keep your camera and tripod attached by some kind of leash mechanism.
- For moving time-lapses or hyper-lapses, try to keep one point of reference in the same position within your camera frame.
Slow Motion
- Shoot slow-motion videos when there is plenty of light.
- For actions that are as slow as walking, slowing down your footage to 50% of the original speed looks good enough. If your video editing project is in 30 fps, shooting your video in 60 fps will give you a 50% slow-motion video. If your video editing project is in 60 fps, shooting your video in 120 fps will give you a 50% slow-motion video. Any slower is overkill for slowing down the speed of walking.
- For actions that are as fast as water splashing, slowing down your footage as little as 15% of the original speed can look good. For a video editing project in 30 fps, you would need a camera that can shoot at up to 240 fps to slow your footage down this much.
Storage and Back-Up
- If you’re using a phone that can store images and videos on a separate SD card, take advantage of that and record your travel footage onto your SD card. Later, you can easily get to your travel media as it will all be in one place.
- If you have your laptop on you, regularly transfer your media files from your cameras to your external hard drives.
- If you don’t want to bring your laptop on your trip and plan to video edit once you’re back home, use a USB memory card reader that connects with an app on your phone to transfer your files into your external hard drive.
- If you have access to a reliable internet connection and you leave your laptop at your place of accommodation, have your computer upload your files onto cloud storage while you are out to travel vlogging.
- Take advantage of Google Photos’ free, unlimited cloud storage for video files up to 1080p.
Video Editing
- If you’re editing a video project with videos from multiple different cameras, make sure to set the correct time and date on all of them before you start filming. Later, in editing, you can import all your image and video files and sort them in the exact order that they were taken.
- If your video editing software can work with proxies, transcode all your video files into proxy files for much faster editing.
Posting On YouTube
- Choose a title that people will search for. Keep your target keywords at the beginning of your title. “S01E01: My Summer Backpacking Trip” is not an effective title. Instead, a title like “Going Up The Eiffel Tower… Beautiful View of Paris!” would be better.

Overcoming Obscured Viewing: Fix for Youtube
There might be some instances where when you try to play a clip on one of the most popular streaming video sites, you are displayed with a YouTube black screen. There could be several reasons behind this.
That said, the following sections discuss some of the common causes of YouTube video black screen, and explain how you can fix the issue easily with merely a few simple mouse clicks. Here, you will also learn how to resolve the problem if it occurs on your smartphone.
Best Video Editor for YouTubers: Wondershare Filmora

Wondershare Filmora
Create stunning effects with simple clicks.
Part 1: What Causes a YouTube Black Screen Error?
As mentioned earlier, although there could be any reason for videos black on YouTube, some of the most common ones are listed below:
Obsolete Web Browser
Because the websites and online portals are regularly updated by the developers to keep them secure from intruders and attackers, the web browsers must also be updated accordingly to keep up the pace. If your instance of the web browser is outdated, you may experience a YouTube TV black screen.
Incompatible Browser Extensions
This mostly happens while using Google Chrome. Because Chrome Web Store is populated with a plethora of extensions, it is likely that any of those might become outdated (or get updated), thus becoming incompatible with the current version of the web browser.
Slow Internet Connection
This issue could be from your Internet Service Provider’s (ISP’s) side. At your part, the maximum you can do is, try switching to a wired network, or if you are using Wi-Fi, consider taking your PC or laptop closer to the wireless router.
Stale DNS Cache
Every time you visit a website, its DNS (Domain Name System) record is automatically stored in the DNS cache. This helps in the address resolution process (fetching the URL) the next time you open the site. If the DNS information gets stale in the DNS cache, the browser may fail to locate the website, a YouTube video in this case, and you will be displayed with the black screen.
Outdated Display Driver
As it is with Windows itself, even the graphic card driver must be updated regularly to maintain your PC’s health. If an updated version of the display driver is not installed on your Windows computer, you may experience YouTube black screen.
Part 2: How to Fix YouTube Video Black Screen [*Quick Way]
Depending on the root cause of the issue, the solutions to fix the YouTube video black screen issue may differ. Nevertheless, some of the most effective remedies are discussed below in detail:
1. Web Browser Solution(s)
Solution 1: Update Your Web Browser
When you experience YouTube video black screen, try updating your web browser to its latest version. Assuming that you’re using Google Chrome, the update process is given below:
Launch Google Chrome, click the Customize and control Google Chrome icon from the top-right corner, and then select Update Google Chrome from the menu that appears.
Note: If the Update Google Chrome option isn’t available, it simply means that you are already using the latest version of the browser
Solution 2: Restart the Web Browser
If the video isn’t visible even after updating Google Chrome, or if you’re already using the most recent version but the issue is still there, you can close the web browser, and relaunch it to see if that helps.
Solution 3: Use a Different Browser
If Google Chrome itself is the culprit, the video should be visible on a different browser. You may consider using Mozilla Firefox or the Windows’ default app, Microsoft Edge.
Copy the URL of the faulty video from Google Chrome’s address bar, and then launch a different web browser, and paste the copied URL in the new browser’s address bar. Press Enter and see if the video plays correctly.
Solution 4: Clean the Web Browser
Sometimes even the web browser history and caches can also prevent a YouTube video from being displayed. Therefore, it would be a good idea to clear the browser data, and see if it helps. The process is given below:
After launching the web browser (Google Chrome is used here for example), go to the Customize and control Google Chrome menu, and then go to More tools, and then select Clear browsing data.
Switch between the Basic and Advanced tabs on the Clear browsing data box to choose the records that you want to delete, and then choose your preferred duration of the records from the Time range drop-down list.
Click Clear data from the bottom-right corner to clear browsing caches.
Solution 5: Disable/Remove the Extensions
If one or more browser extensions are incompatible, even then you may experience YouTube black screen. In such a case, you can disable those extensions, or permanently remove them to resolve the issue. You can learn the process of doing so by following the instructions that are given below:
Launch Google Chrome and go to the Customize and control Google Chrome menu, go to More tools, then select Extensions from the submenu that appears.
Turn off the switch for each of the installed extensions to check if the issue is fixed.
Note: If this solution works, you can try enabling the extensions one at a time, and check turning on which one causes YouTube video black screen. Once the culprit extension is found, you can click Remove to get rid of it altogether.
Solution 6: Reinstall the Browser
If the video is visible on a different web browser, probably the default one that you are using got corrupted. A quick resolution would be to remove its instance from your PC, and install a fresh copy. To do so:
• Type Control Panel in the Cortana search box, and then click Control Panel from the results list.
• On the Control Panel window, click Uninstall a program from under the Programs
• Click to select the browser from the list of installed apps (Google Chrome here) and select Uninstall from above the list.
• Follow the on-screen instructions from there to remove the web browser from your PC. Next, use Microsoft Edge (or any other browser) to download and install a fresh copy of Google Chrome and see if the issue is fixed
2. ISP or Internet Speed Solution(s)
If you are experiencing a slow Internet connection, the issue might be either from your Internet Service Provider’s (ISP’s) side, or on your part. In any case, you can try the following solutions to fix the issue:
Solution 1: Get Your PC/Laptop Closer to the Router
If you are using a Wi-Fi network, consider bringing your device a bit closer to the wireless router and see if the issue is fixed. You may also want to recheck and ensure that there are no highly magnetic devices (a speaker or something similar) placed near the router.
Solution 2: Switch to a Wired Network
If the problem persists, try connecting your laptop/desktop PC to your router with a LAN cable, and then try reopening the YouTube video to see if it plays correctly this time.
PC/Windows Solution(s)
At times, your computer could be the main culprit, and trying some basic troubleshooting steps might resolve the issue. Some of the most effective solutions are listed below:
Solution 1: Clear DNS Cache
Clearing the DNS cache ensures that your PC is now ready to accept and save new DNS records in the cache. The process of clearing the existing cache data is listed below:
Type CMD in the Cortana search box, and click Run as administrator from the right menu of the results list.
Click Yes on the User Account Control confirmation box, and in the Command Prompt window, type IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS and press Enter
Try opening the YouTube video again and see if the issue is fixed
Solution 2: Update the Graphic Card Driver
Anything that you see on your computer screen is because of the graphics card. Since a driver is needed to interact with the device, an old one might prevent the videos from getting displayed. If the graphics card is the culprit, the chances are that you won’t be able to see any video at all, be it from YouTube or offline. Therefore, checking if you are using the latest version of the graphic card driver wouldn’t harm you. The process is given below:
Right-click Start and go to Device Manager from the context menu
Expand the Display adapters tree on the Device Manager snap-in, and right-click the graphics card from the list and select Update driver from the context menu.
Click Search automatically for drivers from the next screen that appears and follow the on-screen instructions from there to update the graphic card driver.
Note: If your PC has multiple graphic cards installed in it, you will have to follow this procedure for each of them individually.
Part 3: How to Troubleshoot YouTube Black Screen on Mobile?
If you wish to watch online videos on your smartphone, but experience YouTube video black screen, the process of fixing the issue on the phones is comparatively simple. The steps that are given below explain the procedure:
How to Troubleshoot YouTube Black Screen on Android
Clear the Cache
Go to Settings and then tap Apps from the Settings Go to YouTube and then scroll down to Storage.
Tap it and then select Clear data and Clear cache. Relaunch YouTube and see if the issue is fixed.
How to Troubleshoot YouTube Black Screen On iOS
Delete and Reinstall the App
Long-tap the YouTube app on your iOS device, and then tap Remove App, and then select Delete App.
Go to App Store and download and install a fresh copy of YouTube, and see if the problem is resolved.
Conclusion
There could be several reasons for YouTube black screen, and depending on the root cause of the issue, the troubleshooting methods may vary. While some inconsistencies can be fixed from within the web browser itself, at times you may need to tweak your operating system to get an accurate solution. Likewise, while using an Android smartphone, you can clear YouTube data and cache; and remove and reinstall the app altogether when on an iOS device.
