Hopefully (fingers crossed) I'm off to Namibia in November with woodsmoke. They've got a long list of things to pack, but just wondering if there's anything specific (from experience) that I should take...
Fishing gear, you can beachcast for Bronze Whalers there, wouldn't go for a dip mind!
Take pleanty of patience, understanding and self control - essentials for any exped that involves more than one person and never mentioned in kit lists. Do not forget your GSOH either!

OK, get the point about the camera!!! It's in!
Unfortunately won't be going near the coast so chain mail suits are out, imaging explaining that at airport customs!!!
Beer Monster (man after my own heart!!) thanks for the advice. Still on the lookout for some ripstop cotton shirts, I'm going to get some US army ripsotop cotton trousers as they will suit the sort of thing I'm doing and I've got some shorts too (will be using a daysack alot). Bino's I have. Gaitors look a good idea though I'm getting some locally made seal skin boots that are quite high and will be tucking in my trousers, but will have a peak. Have a 300mm Image Stabiliser lens which should do the job, but might get a 1.5 or 2.0x converter. This isn't going to be a safari trip though...
Battery charging is sorted there will be power supplied with inverters and stuff so should be ok, though I have a double battery pack/hand grip for the the 5D so should be ok, plus it has an AA holder too.
Thanks for the advice!!
