Helpful Questions
What should I pack?
Besides camera gear, make sure you wear light, hot weather-appropriate clothing and closed shoes for optimal comfort.
The best camera is the one you already own! Any cameras being DSLR, hybrids, compacts and even smartphones are welcome as the tours are truly about composition and creativity. In terms of lenses, bring a prime lens (35 or 50mm) if you have and a standard zoom lens.
You also need one or two fully-charged batteries and enough memory cards to go through the day.
Your question would be very useful to the rest of the travel community!
