Here are 10 tiny video kits thats worth carrying around all the time.
1. Studio 1 productions tri-mount
Great for a mic, a light, and a receiver,
2. Tiffen variable ND
This is INDISPENSABLE.For outdoor, it eliminates jello effect caused by high shutter speeds.
For indoors, it lets you shoot at 1/50th all the time and keeps fluorescent flicker and banding at bay.
3. Xume magnetic filter holder
Snap your filters on-off in half a second.
4. Emergency USB charger. Runs off 2 AA batteries. I've used it on handphones, video transmitters, monitors, EVF...
5. Macro filter. Cheap, stackable greatly reduce the minimum focusing distance on your zoom lens.
6. lensbaby Composer: Create bokeh even in impossible situations.

7. Speedbooster: turn your cropped sensor into a full frame camera!
8. Nitecore Pocket Monster TM26: The maximum intensity is the equivalent of a speedlight. Bounce it off anything.
9. Beachtek MCC2: the shotgun mic mate

10. GoPro Hero3/+: Think of it as a 8mm fisheye lens, a B-Cam, a timelapse camera, and a pole cam all rolled into one.
