USB camera battery charger
● £10-30 ● www.amazon.co.uk
These little USB-powered chargers are incredibly useful for keeping spare batteries topped up during a day’s shooting. They’re available for almost every imaginable type of camera, and come in versions that accept one, two or even three batteries. They usually employ either micro USB or USB-C for power input, which means they can be fuelled from a wide variety of sources. For example, you can top up your batteries in the car while driving between locations, or hook one up to a powerbank in your bag while you’re walking around shooting. We’d recommend recognised names such as Newell or Nitecore.
