You can get electric and on-the-move easily with the allocated budget. The Ninebot Max electric scooter is a real long-range warrior. Strap a GoPro camera on and you’re all set! We haven’t forgotten about the phone, too. Google’s Pixel 4a will get the job done – you won’t have time for smartphone distractions when you ride along.

Yeah, we all know how good smartphones have become, especially with mobile photography. Still, there’s a point to be made in owning a good semi-pro camera. Quite a few points, actually. Owning a dedicated camera means you’ll be more focused on taking pictures and mastering your craft – without the constant distractions of a smartphone (you’ll get one with this package, don’t worry). A good DSLR or a mirrorless can’t be toppled, especially with a nice pack of objective lenses. You can do portrait photography, astrophotography, snap some great artsy photos, and many more. Yeah, modern smartphones kinda try to do the same, but let’s be honest. If you’re serious about your photography, you won’t rely on your smartphone alone. This means you can get a Motorola Moto G Stylus to take up smartphone duties and forget about it.
