No matter what holiday you go on, a camera is one thing you’ll definitely be taking. This is especially the case if you’re going on a Safari! There are some things you need to know though, especially if you want to come back with some amazing photographs, the kind you see in magazines and brochures.
Firstly, it’s important to understand that the people who take those photos, have the equipment to do so. If you just have a small compact camera, you’re going to miss out on a lot of great shots because you’re too far away. Zoom is everything on a safari because the guides are not going to let you too close to the animals. Of course an SLR camera with a telephoto zoom lens will cost thousands of pounds, but that’s the gear you need for professional quality photos.
