i am heading to vietnam for a photo trip for two weeks in october.
i'm just beginning to plan my trip so thought i would bring it up to the LF audience and see if anyone would like to share their experiences (both good and bad). the way i tend to shoot is somewhat off the cuff. i love driving around and stumbling upon things, but will also plan to hit some specific sights as well. for this type of shooting is it best to hire a taxi (or guide) for the day and have them take me around? i will concentrate mainly outside of the bigger cities.
Do i need commercial shooting permits and where might i obtain one?
what are the logistics of traveling in VN with a 4x5 camera?
i have read some of the earlier posts and they will be quite helpful, but i'm seeing if anyone wants to add anything, as all suggestions would be helpful.
fwiw, i plan on taking a carry-on suitcase that holds all 4x5 gear, shooting quickload, + a lowepro backpack with hassleblad, lenses, film, etc. oh and a small duffle for for a suitcase.
thanks in advance
