Great wildlife photography comes from the heart and not the head, but one great step in achieving that great image is having the right gear for the purpose. This doesn't mean you have to have the most expensive or the latest equipment to take good wildlife photographs, but you must have a thorough knowledge of the right kit for the right situation and how to use it properly.
Wildlife photography is one of the most challenging photographic genres and requires a mixture and mastery of skills from areas such as sports photography, landscape and social photography and portraiture, as well as a small element of the voyeuristic paparazzi.
