The Best Photography Spots in Havana Cuba

THE GEAR

The gear we recommend is a good camera and the holy trinity.  A wide-angle lens.  14-24mm or something similar.  A 24-70mm or something similar and, of course, a 70-200mm or something similar.  If you do not have these particular lenses, do not worry; something similar will be just fine. It would be best if you also had a tripod.
