So you've booked your once in a lifetime safari trip to Africa and now your thoughts turn towards photographing all the wildlife you are going to encounter on your adventure.

It would be a great shame to come across your first African pride of lions and not have some decent pictures of the memorable event to show your friends and family back home.

Unfortunately many people who go on safari don't realize that the camera lens you take with you will be the deciding factor between getting wildlife photos where the subject is an unrecognizable blob in a sea of vegetation compared to a crisp, tightly framed image of that black maned leader of the lion pride.

I've been practicing wildlife photography on safari for over twenty years now and I've learnt which are the best lenses to arm yourself with when you go into the African bush to capture lasting, quality images you will be proud to display to anyone.

My recommendations here are for the occasional wildlife photographer such as someone going on an African safari and not for professional wildlife photographers as they have different needs when it comes to camera lenses because they take photographs for a living.

To help you choose a lens to take with you on safari, here is a list of the factors you need to take into account before putting your money down...

1. Size Of The Lens

Anything less than a 300mm lens for the big game you will encounter on safari like lion, rhino, elephant etc will be too small. A 400mm lens will allow you to get good pictures of the smaller animals like bushbuck, vervet monkey and the like. If you are aiming for bird photographs then a 600 mm lens will do the trick.

2. Your Budget

It's very easy to find lenses that cost thousands of dollars but if you are primarily going to be using it for your safari trip and maybe a smattering of wildlife photography after that, you shouldn't be spending more than a few hundred dollars. It is possible to get a lens of high enough quality for your purpose in that price range.

3. Image Stabilization

It's not imperative but if you can get a lens with an image stabilizer it's a huge advantage on a safari because you can handhold the lens without too much fear of blurring in good light which is especially useful if you are not next to a window in the safari vehicle or don't have enough space to position your beanbag or tripod.

4. Zoom Ability

On safari one lens is better than two because of the nature of your subject. When you come across a leopard you won't have time to switch lenses on your camera body because they tend not to stick around for too long so one lens with a good zoom is a big advantage to capture the very shy wildlife you will encounter. Another reason not to change lenses is that dust that is prevalent on an African safari can cause the camera mechanisms to clog up.

So keep these four factors in mind before you make your purchase and if you can find a lens that conforms to all the above requirements than you have a winner.

Here is how to choose the best wildlife camera for your safari and which specific cameras come out tops in the compact and SLR categories.

Contact Lens Replacement Services

When people damage their contact lenses on any given day of the week, sometimes it is necessary to replace them quickly because the person may not have a pair of eyeglasses that they can wear in the meantime. They may consult their doctor and have a replacement pair ordered through regular channels.

If this happens on a weekend, their regular ophthalmologist will not be in their office and the person might be unable to see until the following Monday. Through the use of contact lens replacement services, people can keep any number of contact lens available to wear for any occasion.

One of the requirements that must be followed in order to use a contact lens replacement service is that the person must register their contact lens prescription with the service. This is mandated and required by Law and there is no other way around it. Once this registration has been accomplished, the contact lens replacement service can offer a variety of services, and generally at a price far lower than that offered by their regular eye professional.

A contact lens replacement service can not work miracles. They are required by law to replace the lens prescription exactly as prescribed by your eye physician. This means, that the exact brand, specification and type of contact lens that the doctor prescribed for you on the day that your eyes were examined, will be the finished product that is delivered to you from the contact lens replacement services.

Many people try to renegotiate their vision acuity with this type of contact lens replacement services specialist, but they must adhere to the Law, and give you exactly what the doctor ordered for you. The only exception this policy, is that the contact lens replacement services can change the color of the contact lenses for you if you like.

This exception can be done by contact lens replacement services, only if the color of the lenses is offered in the exact brand that your original prescription was written for. If there are several color choices in that brand, then you can order several colors, to be stylish in any type of outfit that you wear.

Many people use these contact lens replacement services because they like to keep an extra pair of contact lenses in their home medicine cabinet. Business professionals might prefer to keep 2 pairs of contact lens at the office, because one of them will always remain in their briefcase, and the other pair is kept in their office desk drawer.

Should damage occur during a business meeting at a client's business location, it is easy for the business professional to reach into his briefcase and take a moment and change them out in the restroom.

Scratches and unwanted deposits can make the surface areas of contact lens difficult to wear at times. It's makes good common sense to keep two pair on hand, and it is more for convenience and practicalities than it would be for a fashion makeover. When time restraints prohibit a thorough cleaning and rinsing regimen, people will switch to another pair until proper cleaning can be done.

What's a good lens for taking bird pictures?

i have a 2000 Rebel EOS SLR. I want to take good pictures of birds, but cant with the lens i have now, a 28-80 mm. I don't know much about photography or lens, but i want that that zooms in a lot fromm a far distance and quickly so i can get good shots of birds. What kind should i get? Oh and my budget is around $250 or less.

You can get a lot more lens for less money by going fixed focal length. I'd suggest a 300 mm, but also get a rifle stock or tripod. 300 MM is really tough to hold steady.
