I always wonder who can afford to go on all the uber-expensive photo tours that are advertised and let alone be able to afford all the expensive gear. You also left out the expense of a high-end 17" laptop, Photoshop license, printer, etc. I totally agree with you.

I use Canon 20D and 30D cameras with a few lenses including a Canon 100-400mm zoom. I have been on two safaris to Kenya and one to Botswana and have been able to capture many photographs with my limited equipment. I have posted some on my web. Many have been printed to A3+ with good results.Do not let anyone think you can only get photos with megabucks of equipment. Tony I am an amateur photographer retired from work.

Many game parks let you drive your own vehicle which lets you spend as long as you want at a sighting, move where and when you want, and not pay a guide. You can get by on a shoestring.

If you use the equipment only once, you can always rent it . But if you are serious about photography, I assume you won't use it only once ?

But I don't make my living at it - so I can't just write off equipment for my business. In my case its equipment vs. kids vs. living expenses. Clearly if you're a pro the equation is quite different.
