In last years trip to Australia, i took the Nikon D300 and 2 lenses (Nikon 18-200mm and Sigma 10-20mm) plus a tripod and some cables. I have taken some amazing pictures with this combo, and I still managed to miss a few shots by not having the right lens on or having the wrong settings (like manual focus or HDR on , duh).
I spent last year getting better at photography and stocking up and practicing with pro lenses (see my portfolio link on the side). As this is my first full-on photo trip I’m taking everything I have (and buying lots more accessories), and it’s been a huge hassle to amass what seems now like a huge pile of equipment that I will have to handle throughout the trip.
At least this time I have an iPad to backup and edit the photos on the way, instead of a 15″ Macbook Pro
