Behind the Frame: Our Toolkit for Capturing the Commonwealth Games

Four cameras, seven lenses, and one Commonwealth Games. That was the equipment I brought to Glasgow 2026, though most days only three cameras made it to the venues. The fourth stayed behind as a backup or served as a remote camera. This toolkit reveals a photographer's thoughtful curation, balancing readiness with restraint. It's a masterclass in traveling light without compromising vision.
