"A word of warning: I was slightly handicapped this year in the lens department because the baggage handlers at Johannesburg International Airport ripped apart a locked Pelican case containing by trusty 300mm 2.8 lens. It serves as a reminder not to check in anything of valuable into flights going through SAA handling."
As this is the third incident like this that I heard about in the last month, it looks like the O.R Tambo baggage handlers have learn't to be selective and look for high value items that have been checked. Two of the three were visiting overseas photographers. Not good for our image as 2010 approaches.
