I am heading to Antarctica and Patagonia (Chile) in late January. I would appreciate hearing advice from those with experience photographing in those locations what cameras and lenses I should bring. I have a Sony A7RV and the Sony 24-120 and 100-400 zooms, which I don't enjoy using but I was thinking of using the Sony as my primary system, as I assume that a fair amount of shooting in Antarctica would be from the vessel and require a longer lens. Should I also bring my X2D? The longest lens I have for it is the 135mm with the TC, and changing in and out of that lens and TC is not quick and easy, particularly in crappy weather.
I gather that tripods are not allowed on shore excursions by Zodiac, but how about on ship?
Any other practical advice would be welcome as well.
Thanks.
