Any
advise regarding photography?
For wildlife
photography, a 200 mm zoom lens is the smallest that
you should use, A 300-400 zoom is preferable. For bird-watchers,
a 500mm or larger is necessary, and a wide-angle lens
would be ideal for scenic shots.
Bring extra camera and flash batteries and plenty of
film - you may find these quite expensive and difficult
to obtain locally.
