I've found with some really photographer-oriented travel companies
like www.shutterspeedtravel.com you don't have to worry so much about
what kit to take with you because they can lend you everything you
need. http://www.shutterspeedtravel.com/kit.asp. I went on one of
their photography expeditions last year and it was incredible because
they had so much extra kit with them. I got addicted to using beanbags
instead of tripods, and the best bit was the fact there were very few
people in each vehicle - 3 people in a 3 row jeep -so you got the
whole row to yourself, and didnt have to contend with people moving
around too much.
They also had all the equipment necessary for charging all the
batteries, downloading everything to computers and then we spent the
evenings looking at them on the large screen laptops. It was much
better than other trips Ive been on. No kids for a start!
Iwas just looking at the site to see if I could find a picture of the
vehicles we went in to give you an idea but I couldnt find one. But I
did find this: http://www.shutterspeedtravel.com/caption.html - haha!
Cute picture. That =A3300 prize could help as the holidays weren't cheap
but they were worth the extra to go with serious photographers.
