Re: Bean bag or not on safari in East Africa

I've been to Kruger and Sri Lanka safari's with lens, if you are lucky you won't have a full jeep, allowing space to move about and get a decent resting place. If normal/unlucky the jeep will be full, everyone will be moving about ,the resting positions in jeep will be limited.

I found with G9 and 100-400mm the IS is suitable and as its a lighter long lens it'll be fine handholding.

You can use rucksack/spare fleece to rest on rather than a specific bean bag.

Good luck
