headed to Roberft O'toole's workshop there on Mon; bringing my D500 and both Sigma 150-600 and Tamron 100-400; do I really need both? trying to lighten
my load ( am also bringing my Lumix G85 with 100-300 M Zuiko; O'Toole says to bring them both, but I would rather shed the 5+ pounds of the Sigma if I can;
if the consensus of responses is to bring it, also, I will

Strictly logic says take the Sigma and leave all else at home. You may need wider than 100-150 on crop frame tho ....I would have a short zoom with me also. ...... and yes, I have been there.

I was there two weeks ago. fantastic. the extra focal length comes in handy if you are shooting the birds coming to the nest in flight. I used the 80 - 400 on a D7100

I was there several years ago, and at that time I had a Nikon d3100 and the Nikkor 18-300mm lens. I got some pretty good shots with that setup. There were a lot of people there with all kinds of photo gear. There were a few instances where I would have liked a little more reach. 400mm might be enough, but you know how we men are, we always want a little more.
