Lenses for Myanmar


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm back with another travel lens question for anyone that has been to Burma before. I'm going to be visiting the country soon and I'm debating if my 100-400mm lens will get much use there, In particularly around Inle lake and Bagan area. For a portrait lens would you bring one that is more geared towards environmental portraits (35-50mm) or something more like a short telephoto lens? I know you can use a short telephoto for environmental shots but I'm not sure how much space there is too work with in the temples, monasteries, etc.

Thanks

They have monsoon forrest and rainforrest, so you need aq good weather seal.

Anywhere around the lakes, you could use the 100 - 400  for wildlife shots.

Then as you say, yourself, the 35 - 50  would be good on the streets.

A general ,go to , allrounder,  even though it is not a  Gmaster, is the 24  -  105.

Im sure places like Fixation in vauxhall, have the 24 - 105 for rent, as well as other camera shops  around the UK.

the 24 - 105 and the 100 - 400  means you have  almost every eventuality covered.

Good Luck & have a great trip !
