I vote the 18-300.
Sweet range of focal lengths and is a good lens.
Other lenses require you carry more than one.
The 18-105 is redundant to your 18-300 and they have the same aperture range and most likely it is faster at 105 than the lens that ends at 105.

I think it really comes down to which is sharper. Speed of the lens won’t be important. You won’t be shooting wide open.

Dear Hoggers,
I will be going out to the Grand Canyon in August for a course on Lightning/Landscape photography. I will be using my D500 but am wondering about my lenses. I have a Nikon 18 - 300 1.3.5 - 5.6 and 18 - 105 1.3.5 - 5.6. Any better ideas what lens I should possibly acquire for this trip?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Richard

Tokina 11-16 f2.8 for your half frame camera for ground landscapes. 18-105 for aerial shots. Rent helicopter time by yourself early morning or late afternoon to shoot aerial landscapes. Ask the charter company if they will remove the door where you will be sitting to give you more room to shoot. Use the longer end of your zoom so you don't catch the rotor blades in your images.
