camera gear for Costa Rica bird photography trip. What to bring?
Thanks, everyone. OK, I will need to rethink my gears a bit. I can definitely hand carry 500/4e FL in my Moose Peterson MP-3 easily with a couple of bodies and other lenses. In this case, it will be D850 and Z7 then since Z7 can back up D850 as well (not great for bif but no problem for more stationary birds).
I used Pelican case for my camera gears to check in when I went to Japan and India and there was actually no problem at all but not sure about the rest of the world
I will be flying Alaskan Airline to San Jose from LAX and Delta back to LAX. Any idea how strict they are about 7kg allowance for carry on? From Bangkok to LAX, generally it is not a big issue but some friends mentioned that the US airlines are quick strict. I have not been back to the US in almost 20 years so I don't really know the situation there anymore. Flashes, tripods, chargers etc will be well wrapped in put into my suitcases.
