I'm planning on taking a safari this winter in Africa, and clearly my current set-up is not at all built to make the most of it.
I'll have about £1000 available to spend on equipment. I need something long with a new body.
My current thought is to perhaps go the route of a 7D (mki) + 100-400 mki.
However, I have some concern as many people have often called the 100-400 mki soft, and also some concern that the 7D isn't the right camera for the job.
Anyone think, with the set up I will otherwise have, that they would take another route, either with the camera or the lens?
Edit: Or there is the possibility of renting, as pointed out by Mike below. Anyone have any opinions on this, and what they would rent for the trip?
Any input very welcome.
Thanks!
