Re: Lenses for Morocco

I went to morocco 2 years ago...essaouira and marrakech also.  It’s true that you will be in cramped and crowded streets so something wide is a must. Essaioura  has a nice view of the sea and fishing boats, so a wider lens is also needed. In place Jamel al ...in Marrakech at night there is very little light’ so a lens with fast aperture is needed.

A bit of advice:

taking photos of people is nothing against their religion, rather against the constant exploitation of their image. Just ask first...if not they will come up to you.

alos try to resist being glued to the vf because the streets are where you walk and they are extremely busy with deliveries on mopeds’ bikes and donkeys...they carry lots of things that are big and long...an accidents waiting to happen if you are not aware of your surroundings at all times.

have fun and don’t get lost in the souk, if not you are going to have to pay someone to guide you out
