Just thought I'd add a few of the shots I took using the Nikon D500 and 80-400 at effective 600mm. It was a cold, rainy, dreary day and I shot at ISO 2000, f8 at 1/2000sec. Other than this day shooting distant critters, I used the Zeiss 18-70 (24-105 eqiv), for what it's worth.


Stupendous photography

Rick from NY mentioned Geiranger. I was there in 2018 on Cunard’s Victoria and took this photo with my iPhone 8+ at the time.
The fjords are magnificent and you almost can’t go wrong with any camera you have.
Have fun!


What a phenomenally beautiful, breathtaking shot πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’ŽπŸ’šπŸ’š

KenCan, taken at the base of Lang Fossen waterfall having crossed the previously mentioned dual carriageway road - Nikon DSLR at 24mm on a 24-70 zoom on a tripod. Unfortunately, this was sightseeing holiday not a photographic holiday and time constraint no time to use a ND filter, set up tripod, compose and shoot.
Goretex rain gear and boots.


Impressive shot - and possibly a great day for a quick shower while camping 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Lang Fossen waterfall, to scale the height look at the lower right side with the dual carriage way road, this waterfall is 610m high and this was shot from a moving boat in a rainstorm. The RAW image looked black and white but in post-production this is what you see. I was on the left side of the boat sailing towards the waterfall and took loads of images whereas the people on the right side could not see the waterfall! If you are going with wife or partner etc maybe separate and one sit on one side when you see who has the better prospect of an image move the photographer to get the best chance of getting an image.

Thanks. It wasn’t too hard with scenery like that.

I cruised the fjords last June with an a6000 and used a 16-70 lens for about 90 percent of my shots, and a 70-350 for the relatively few long-distance photos. Your 18-135 is a good lens that should cover almost all your needs. The 55-210 will be useful for the more distant wildlife shots.

Those are the only two lenses I would take. The a6000 is a wonderful camera, and if you shoot raw and do a little post-processing, you should get some great pics. It's a fun trip -- we were lucky with the weather, but it can get wet up there. The a6000 is not weather sealed, so I suggest bringing either a waterproof camera as a backup (I took an Olympus T-5) or a plastic camera sleeve to keep your a6000 dry.

I posted some shots from our trip on the website below.
