Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2007 10:31 pmI knew there was something !!
Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2007 10:43 pmHi Marc,
interesting kit - now where do you live
might want to get some gear (break in or something like that) NOT !!!
I personally don't like the idea of adverstising what one has - what for ?
But a real question for you: how are you going to transport all that gear ?
Have a great time in Zambia, and show us the photographic results.
Regards,
CD

Apart from chargers, etc, most of the gear fits in the Lowepro Mini Trekker & 75 Toploader. All carry on legal

Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2007 11:28 pmAre you sure that Zambia has 240v ? The extension cord may be useless.
Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2007 11:28 pmWhat are you taking storage wise ?

UK plug/ Adapter. (So, yes 240V):wink:
Have covered just about everything, having planned this trip since Nov last year, and (trying not to sound like a big head) this is my 5th trip to the dark continent.

Plenty of 2 & 4GB Extreme III CF's + Jobo Giga View Pro Evolution 80GB storage as second backup.

Errr yeah... me!!! *waves madly*
Have fun... do all the good stuff... don't get eaten by anything.... and post the pics when you get back...

extra batteries, depending what your jobo uses.
Not sure if you would need a better beamer for your flash.
A set of tools that can be used for the tripod, allen key, screwdriver, etc
I assume you are taking your bean bag empty, just fill it up when you get there.
Is it a photography specific tour?
Have a great time.

André

Posted: Thu Sep 06, 2007 5:41 pmYikes... I went over with one body, an 18-125 and a bigma + storage and batteries. I think you'll do fine...
Posted: Thu Sep 06, 2007 5:58 pmZambia....you might want to take a few photographs whilst you are there!
Are you going to carry that stuff on as hand luggage?

Nope. Lots of gear use autosensing Vin these days. Just put the appropriate adapter on the plug, and you get four outlets for the price of one.
BUT where's the bag?
