Hi All,
I will be travelling to Panama in February 2019 - it will be my first time in a rainforest so I have a few questions regarding birding and photographing in this setting:
(1) I assume the lighting is poor/inconsistent, so would a large f-stop lens be useful (I have a 300 f2.8 or a 400 f5.6)
(2) would a flash be a necessity or not? I have a Speedlite EX550
(3) I assume the weather (specifically rain) changes rather quickly so I assume some sort of weatherproofing for the camera/lenses ... any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Victor
