At the end of this year I will be heading down to South Africa for a self driving trip through the Kalahari (Botswana) Etosha (Namibia) and down the coast before turning back to South Africa. Half way I will fly into the Okavango delta and back to Maun.
It is just a fun and holiday trip.
What kind of equipment would you take with you?
The trip involves wild life, landscape, cities and anthropological aspects. I am planning to have with me:
M6 0.85 and my M9
50 rigid Summicron
Canon 28 ltm
Nikkor 85 2 ltm
35 C-Biogon
25 Biogon
50 Planar
15 CV Heliar
- and I know already that this is nuts.
Plus there is the “safari” question: even though I am not very keen on taking shots of hippos and lazy lions I might like to have more than a 50 when running into them. I still do have a Nikon D300 with an 80-400 and a 105 2.8. I know exactly that this is too much.
What would YOU do?
Cut off the hippos (this is the tele D300)?
Go just digital (M9 plus 15, 25, 50 and D300 80-400)?
Or would you stay Leica (adding an Elmarit 135 2.8?).
