My camera gear
One or two people (well, Rod, actually) wanted to know about my camera gear...
I've always used Nikon DSLRs (currently a D500). As I like to keep things simple and lightweight, I usually take just one lens with me, preferring the flexibility of zooms (usually my 80-400 but if stuff's going to be close then a 70-200 f/4). I have a couple of primes - a shiny new 500pf for birds and far-away mammals and a 105 f/2.8 for macro. I used a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100 for several mega-lightweight trips and there's always my Samsung phone - great for no-faff photography. I use a Lowepro top-loader bag and, occasionally, a Manfrotto tripod.
(And for you John) I shoot in RAW and process in Lightroom/Topaz DeNoise.
