Will be heading to Galapagos this October on a LOB. I'm leaning towards not bringing video lights (2 x Keldan 8XR) for a few reasons: Most of the articles/posts I've read seem to suggest that video lights are probably not critical - either scaring the animals, or they would be too far in the blue anyway. Seal/iguana is shallow so ambient light would suffice Strong currents so no light setup is much easier to handle I am coming from Asia and this is part of a longer trip (will be in the Americas for ~2 months, potentially heading to Mexico after Galapagos), so lugging any non-essential/extra gear is a pain Wanted to hear from those that have done Galapagos - what was your experience with video lights? Did you regret bringing/not bringing? Any tips or advice would be appreciated :) Thanks in advance!
