Hi,
I posting for a friend. Two questions...
1. My friend is planning to go on the ABC trek in Nepal this Oct. She intends to bring her Canon 300D but she is worried about the battery, i.e. whether she will be able to charge her battery. Will there be a charging problem (since the ABC trek is quite well-touristed already)? If so, are there any alternatives to the charging (besides buying lots of batteries!)?
2. She would like to get a camera backpack for the trip. She plans to use the backpack for future trips as well as local shoots. The key requirements are that it be comfortable to carry and that it can hold her gear. She has looked at the Lowepro Rover AW II and Mini Trekker AW. The Rover looks better as it has a good waiststrap (to take some of the weight off the shoulders) and there is space for non-camera stuff. However, the space for camera equipment is more limited than the Mini Trekker. And she's not sure if her lenses will fit nicely. Would anyone be able recommend a suitable backpack for her? This is what she intends to carry:
1. Canon 300D body
2. Canon 300 body (for in case she can't get juice for the 300D)
3. Sigma 28-300mm lens
4. Canon 18-55mm lens
5. Flash
6. Tele-converter
7. Tripod
8. Tamron 180mm macro (in future)
One of the bodies will most probably be attached to a lens.
TIA!
