We are taking a 14 day cruise with a 6 day pre cruise tour. Flying into Anchorage. Then to Denali, Talkeetna, Alyeska, Homer, Seward, Kodiak, Dutch Harbor. Then cruise to Pretropavlovsk, Russia, then Japan, Kushiro, Hokodate and Tokyo.
I’m was thinking of buying a Nikon 18-300mm for my Nikon 7000 for its versatility? Would this work well for me?
That lens would be fine or the Tamron 18-400 as mentioned. A monopod and cleaning supplies as it'll probably be wet. And extra memory card so you can take endless photos. Nothing as horrible as seeing the perfect opportunity only to have your camera tell you the memory is full. Make it light and easy to use so it compliments your travel, not burdens it. Have fun. Enjoy our beautiful home.
