OK. Off to Tanzania for a week on safari end Sep/ early Oct. Northern circuit.
Looking for some advice on the kit to take. It will be 4 wheel drive vehicle stuff mainly.
Body wise I've got a D810, D500 & D7100 and was intending taking the D810 and D500- D7100 for the classifieds soon I think
Lens wise I've 16-35 f4, 24-105f4, 70-200f2.8, 120-300f2.8, 1.4tc that goes with last 2, 150-600 sigma contemporary, 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.8, 14mm 2.8 & 105mm 2.8 macro
They're not all going!
I've been told that the issue is often about animals being too close rather than too far away.
I was thinking about 24-105 and 120-300 as a good starter set with the tc giving the option on those bodies of 35mm equivalents of 24-105, 36-150, 120-300, 180-420, 250-600.
What else would you take, if anything, and why? I've limited luggage space to carry it in and don;t know about the 150-600 or 70-200 as back ups. I like my landscapes but thought I'd have to compromise on the wider stuff and filters for weight reduction.
No tripod going, monopod(s) and bean bag stuff.
Thoughts welcome.
