Best Digital Cameras For Kenya Tanzania Uganda Safari Travel
The Best Compact Digital Cameras for Kenya Tanzania Uganda Travel, Safari Photography
Though our safari guides are dedicated photographers, they often don't take digital cameras with them when they are on a safari in Tanzania Kenya Uganda as they rather not to have the interruption and concentrate on making the experience as enjoyable as possible for tourists who have paid for the privilege. Our guides do have lots of other opportunities to travel on their own and photograph incredible wildlife & scenery. With this "best digital camera information our travel guides hope to pass on advice to help you get the best digital camera for travel, safaris and wildlife photography.
Best Digital Cameras for Travel in Kenya Tanzania Uganda - the most important features are:
The camera should be Handy - This for a safari travel camera is vital, it should be easy to place in your hand luggage; it has to be simple to hold, we highly recommend a compact digital camera for touring Africa. Remember that professional photographers carry large photographic equipment because it's their job and you are on Kenya Tanzania Uganda holiday with the idea being to enjoy it.
Don't become a Target - Another thing to keep in mind is that if you travel around populated cities like Nairobi, you are immediately a target for thieves.
Safari Camera - When you travel on safari in Africa, you most probably will be traveling on a 4x4 and the size of your camera is not that critical as long as it is easily available, but if you plan on a walking safari, again a small easy to carry camera is highly recommended.
Best Cameras for Wildlife Photography
When photographing wildlife the most important features to look out for are:
Get in close to the subject - Big Zoom required - the principals of Africa wildlife photography are similar to photographing polar bears in the arctic, you need to get as close as possible.
Digital Camera Battery types and Battery life
Battery life and what type of batteries the camera takes is also an important consideration to take into account, remember if you are traveling to remote locations there may not be any electricity to charge your batteries, therefore buying a spare battery or two is a must.
Below are recommended best digital cameras for Africa travel and wild life photography, by taking into account three main features of large zoom and compact size camera
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 is the successor to the very popular FZ18 and has increased resolution: 10.1 Megapixels.
It has an amazing super-zoom with an 18x optically stabilised lens (27-486mm, 35mm equivalent) and if that is not enough there are options to add a 1.7x teleconverter to it. As well as the zoom for t great close ups of wildlife; the 27mm wide-angle feature is ideal for your broad Masai Mara and Serengeti landscapes allowing you to capture a wider view.
Canon Powershot SX10 IS
Canon's latest super-zoom, taking over from the fantastic PowerShot S5 IS. Unlike the Panasonic, it uses AA batteries to power it. The massive 20x zoom (28-560mm equivalent), is perfect for getting close to large wildlife like elephants and rhinos. The Canon Powershot SX10 IS boasts 10 Megapixels with the latest DIGIC 4 processor adds AF tracking, more efficient video compression, and a clever self-timer mode which waits for a new person to appear before starting the countdown..
Canon Powershot SX10 IS and the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28.
Both cameras are very alike in most regards
