4. Wired Apple Earphones

I recently sold my AirPods Max after seeing so many videos about EMF radiation. Now, I rely on my wired Apple earphones for good sound quality without any worry.

Backups are crucial when dealing with valuable content. I never leave for a shoot without my LaCie portable hard drive. It’s rugged, reliable, and has enough storage to keep all my footage safe. The durability of this hard drive gives me peace of mind, knowing my content is protected, storage is never a problem! Check out the LaCie hard drive here.
