Join us in The Chobe National Park as we showcase what it's like to spend a day with us in this amazing part of Botswana. Featuring beautiful footage from the Chobe River photo safaris that we do twice a day to a glimpse of behind the scenes at The Pangolin Chobe Hotel.
The Chobe National park is arguably one of Africa's best year-round wildlife photography destinations. We opened The Pangolin Chobe Hotel (home to Pangolin Photo Safaris) in 2018 The Chobe is famous for its huge elephant population as well as plenty of hippos, crocodiles, plains game and an abundance of birds - both migratory and resident species.
In The Chobe, we use specialised boats and vehicles to explore the Chobe National Park twice a day. We supply our clients with cameras and telephoto lenses (if required) free of charge and each time we go into the park you are accompanied by one of the Pangolin Photo Hosts
This was shot by our good friend Quintin MIlls. If you would like to know more about his work you can visit his site here: quintinmills.co.za/
We are Pangolin Wildlife Photography based in The Chobe, Northern Botswana. When we are not making videos for our channel we host our guests and clients from all over the world on our Wildlife Photography safaris throughout Botswana and the rest of Africa..and beyond sometimes too!
If you are interested in joining us on safari then please have a look at our photo safari packages: www.pangolinphoto.com/photo-s...
If you would like to be kept informed of our new videos releases as well as online tutorials, gear reviews and special offers on safaris then please join our community by clicking here: www.pangolinphoto.com/community

The first time I visited was in 1995, I can't believe it was nearly 30 years ago. Two things stick out in my mind, the first was just the sheer number of elephants, at one point there must have been 30 or 40 including several tiny babies. The second, was sitting in the bar in the evening listening to the hippos, I just love their vocalisations, even now hearing one on tv can make me feel warm and fuzzy 😊

How can I choose just one moment...there were so many! Being able to try out a camera on the boat and on the safari vehicles was a highlight. Seeing so many elephants was spectacular. We saw several species of jackel too. The hotel and staff were sensational! The food was delicious. Next time.. We find a pangolin, ok?

There were so many special moments during my 7 night stay in April 2022. The stay was absolutely fantastic. For me the best moment is when Guts told me, during a group photo editing session, that he was jealous of one of my photos. It was a photo that was made possible by Pangolin loaning me a camera and lens after my Sigma 60-600mm Nikon mount lens failed on the FIRST day! Through the patience and expertise of Sarah and Janine, I learned to shoot with a Canon after 45 years of only using Nikon.

Hi Richard, thanks for the compliment. I was using a Canon EOS R5 and an EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L II mostly hand held, some shots with a DJI RS 2 Gimbal. For the longer shots i used an EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II. Shout if you have any other questions. Q

@@QuintinMills Thanks appreciate it. I have a question re your experience. Clearly the inbuilt 5 axis image stabilization cannot compete with the DJI RS but how effective is the inbuilt Canon IS for video. I guess it also depends on the lens focal length and so on.

@@richardruda267 So i am going to say that is is pretty darn capable for 90% of what you would need. There are times when wide open that there is a bit of a "wobble" on the outsides, but overall it is brilliant. Obv a gimbal will always have smoother movement when walking / running / moving over terrain with a subject, but i find it easier to hand hold for more close quarter footage that i need to move to exactly where i need it when i need it. I was able to handhold the 100-400 at 400mm successfully even on a moving boat so very impressed 🙂
