Photography Tips

Forest birding demands fast primes (f/2.8 or wider) and high ISO tolerance. A 500–600 mm lens captures canopy birds in Budongo and Bwindi. Use a fluid-head tripod for static perched birds and ISO 3200+ in dense shade. Sensor cleaning kit is essential in Uganda's humid forest zones.
