Getting a new lens for your Safari may be a bit daunting and you may be having questions on what type of lens you need for an African Safari. I would love to help you find a lens that fits your needs.

You need a telephoto lens with a reach of at least 200mm for you to be able to take great photos of African wildlife. This lens will help you easily capture close up photos of wildlife that are far away

I found the best way to get a great lens for your safari as a beginner: Lensrentals.com. They have hundreds of different lenses to choose from and what’s great about them is that they have a policy of not keeping lenses that are more than two years old. This ensures that their equipment is new and most up to date with current trends.
