A great neck or sling strap that just works — and works well! $34.95; available via B&H

LEATHERMAN – Style PS Multitool

Recommended by Scott Wyden Kivowitz

The only TSA approved pocket knife, with scissors, tweezers and nail file which doubles as a screwdriver. Great for a photographer’s keychain. $29.95; available via Amazon

Lowepro Passport Sling

Recommended by Lauri Novak

This is a great sling bag for under $50. I’ve had mine for 6 or 7 years and it’s held up really well through daily use, out on hikes, shooting cyclocross races, cities, countryside, and traveling. It’s easy to get into and much more unassuming than a backpack. $34.95; available via B&H

Think Tank Photo Cable Management 30 V2.0

Recommended by Bryan Esler

I’ve got a ton of these, and they help keep all my cords and small accessories organized and out of the way. I’ve got one bag to hold my MagMod accessories, another for my Platypod accessories, one for my PocketWizard and strobe cords and one final one for my Rode microphone. It makes it super easy to grab and go or store in my roller bag when getting ready for a photoshoot. $29.75; available via B&H

Watson Lithium-Ion Battery Pack with Compact AC/DC Charger for NP-FW50 Battery

Recommended by Chris Anson

Excellent battery with charger for those Sony users on your Christmas list. Replaces the Sony NP-FW50 battery. $25.95; available via B&H

Leica Ceramic Coffee Mug

Recommended by Bryan Esler

Most of us can’t afford Leica gear, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have fun with it! This ceramic coffee mug is styled in the Leica Noctilux-M 50 design, meaning you can take that wanna-have lens with you anywhere you go. $35; available via B&H
