Is there a list of “iNaturalist” gear or must-haves? I am asking, because when I joined iNaturalist in 2017, I first used it through my iPhone. However, I currently rely on two camera’s with built-in gps. Which I listed below. I am now looking into other tools to enhance the iNaturalist experience. e.g is there a portable microscope that would allow observing the real micro-life? If such a list does not exist, can this topic be the start of creating such a list? **Camera** - The [Sony DSV-HV400X](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Cyber-shot_DSC-HV400X) for photo’s where the organism is 2 meters and beyond from the camera - [Olympus TG-5](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympus_Tough_TG-5) Used for photos where the camera is less than 2 meters from the observed organism ---
