The unique Photography Playing Cards from Travel 9to5 is a useful camera reference sheet printed on a deck of uniquely designed playing cards, like pocket-sized cheat sheets you can bring wherever you travel. Each numbered card illustrates important rules and techniques about photography, and the info on the cards can be combined so you will have everything you need for just about any shooting situation, whether you are shooting on a compact, mirrorless, DSLR camera, or even a smartphone.
