Australia - kit ?

[Tbabe]

I am off to Auz to see my Sis, we may be off camping for two weeks while there, I am disabled in so much as I have a fused ankle & nerve damage below the knee on one leg, taking all this into consideration do I take the D300, 300mm f4, 10-20 Sigma & 24- 70 or do I make life much easier and buy a Coolpix P100 or something similar for the trip :shrug:

Hi Pete,
Had this issue last year when I went to visit relatives in Oz. In the end didn't leave anything to chance I took all my kit inc my uber heavy Manfrotto tripod (which I broke down and packed into separate suitcase). In the end I was glad I did as I used it all and without my tripod and remote release couldn't have got this shot

If you are camping though I don't think you have the choice of taking all your lenses wish I'd had a 10-20 though. Whatever you choose you'll have plenty of subject matter to take photos of.

Thx Pete. I am really pleased with it which is not often the case with me. Where are you going in Oz? We were in the Brisbane area most of the time but spent 3 days in Sydney and a Week on the Sunshine Coast at Coolam Beach.
