Hello,
I am planning a trip of a lifetime to Alaska in June. It will mostly be for birdwatching, but I have a feeling if I never saw a single bird the whole trip there would be plenty to photograph in landscapes. Part of the time I'll be on my own with a rental car, part of the time I'll be with a birding group with its own transportation.
I'm trying to decide whether to bring 2 DSLRs, my D500 with my Tamron 150-600 and my Sony a77with an 18-135. I prefer to shoot RAW/NEF so have already decided my phone camera or a bridge camera would not suffice for what I imagine will be amazing landscapes with a lot of high contrast. If I took only one camera I have a Nikon 18-55 and a Nikon 70-300 from an older DSLR purchase. I hope this makes sense. I'm confusing myself just typing it out....
Anyway, I'm trying to decided whether to take two cameras and not have to change lenses, or just bring the D500 with 2 or 3 lenses.
What do you think? Thanks very much in advance.
Ann

I just got back from a week long trip to Europe and took one camera - Canon 5d Mark lll, not light - and two lenses. I walked all day every day and can’t imagine having lugged two cameras.
