FILM & PHOTOGRAPHY

Explore! Hunt with Hadzabe join Serian's founder, filmmaker & guide Alex Walker in company with friend, author & photographer Mike Hacker, have set their sites on one of the most secluded spaces in Tanzania. Known to very few people, consequently quiet and secluded, Lake Eyasi is the object of their desire. Inspired by its remote and rugged landscape, there is no better destination for these two adventurers. read more...

BINOCULARS

Your safari experience will benefit from a pair of binoculars, 8x32 or larger 10 x 40 format are great. These are really invaluable in the  northern serengeti where off roading is not permitted and you will sometimes be watching game from a long way away. Its a very special experience to be able to watch an animal closer and watch its behavior.

CAMERA ADVICE FROM MIKE HACKER
This is always a personal thing,You will have thousands of beautiful and fantastic photographic moments during your stay so bring the best equipment you can.

A 12 mega pixel SLR camera, with a good wide angle lens for you landscape and vistas. Anything between 17 to 28 mm's will be good. Then you will benefit from a zoom lens can cover your medium range something like a 75 to 200 mm zoom is great. Some photographers also use a telephoto lens in the 300-400mm range for getting close ups of the Game. If you are going to buy a lens especially for your safari we recommend Calumet Photographic. They will give you good advice.

Other items for your camera bag are plastic re-sealable bags to keep you equipment in protecting them from dust and rain. A bean bag (empty for your flights we can fill them in camp), these are great for leaning the camera on to the car as a tripod as cuts out camera shake. Also bring lots of memory cards, 4 or 8 Gig size are good. Maybe extra storage utility so that you can back up your photos and empty your cards for more photos.

Digital cameras are notorious for running down batteries and we therefore strongly recommend at least 2 spare rechargeable batteries, your battery charger and an adaptor kit to fit our three pin UK sockets.  The camps have Solar recharging facilities and batteries can also be charged in the safari vehicle if you have a 12v adaptor.
