If you\u2019re lucky enough to have the chance to go on one of these once-in-a-lifetime adventures, you\u2019ll undoubtedly want to capture the best moments in photos you can revisit after your trip \u2013 they\u2019re the best souvenirs to document the amazing sights and remind you of the memories you made along the way. However, taking photos on safari can be trickier than you think. If you\u2019re looking to take some great wildlife snaps, a safari trip might be the perfect chance to step up your photography game and splurge for a new camera. While smartphone camera technology has been making incredible strides, the limited digital zoom and screen glare isn\u2019t going to cut it on safari. <\/p>\n\n\n<div><hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p><em>Travel on: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/safari-guide\/photography-safari\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a Photography safari <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What to look for in a camera<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. <strong>Price point<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Though your safari trip was undoubtedly a big expense in itself, it\u2019ll definitely be worth shelling out a bit more for a good camera if great wildlife shots are what you\u2019re after. There are cameras at every price point that will already be a huge step up from your smartphone camera. With tons of competitive features out there that inflate the price tag, you should know that you don\u2019t need the most expensive model to take the best pictures, especially if you\u2019re not a professional photographer. Take into account the types of pictures you\u2019ll be taking \u2013 close-up shots of wildlife in action, or sweeping shots of the safari landscape \u2013 to determine the features you\u2019ll want to put your money on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B079GDB7C7\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B079GDB7C7&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;tag=dtc-safari-camera-20&#038;linkId=4300a953271fcc88c4cee163e708fa7c\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Investing in quality camera equipment can make a huge difference.<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=dtc-safari-camera-20&#038;l=am2&#038;o=1&#038;a=B079GDB7C7\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" style=\"border:none !important; margin:0px !important;\" \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.

Some of the best wildlife moments on safari will be captured during dusk or dawn hours, when the animals will be at their most active. You\u2019ll want a camera that\u2019s able to render your image and its colours well in those conditions.

With a DSLR, you\u2019re able to change lenses to get a greater range of shots, which means the options are truly endless. Even intro DSLRs can offer better photos than most point-and-shoot cameras, at a comparable price. Their only downside is that with more options come more bulk \u2013 extra accessories and heavy lenses might take up space and weigh you down. But if you\u2019re ready to level up your photography skills and start taking travel photos more regularly, DSLRs are the tried-and-true way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/best-cameras-for-travel-blogging\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Best Cameras for Travel Blogging for Every Budget<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Canon Rebel series<\/strong> is a great introduction to the DSLRs.

Drones are prohibited on most reserves, but if your heart is set on getting some aerial shots, you can get in touch with your tour provider to see what their provisions are. As always, be respectful of the environment and of the local culture. Once you have your bags packed and your camera picked out, you\u2019re all set to take incredible photos and make unforgettable memories on your exciting safari adventure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div><hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p><em>Travel on: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/i\/africa-safari\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">an African safari <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safaris can be magical experiences that draw you into deep into the wilderness and away from all the worries of daily life.
