Has anyone in the forum been to Alaska recently for a bird photography trip? I'm going in May/June and having a hard time trying to figure out what to bring. I want to be as light and mobile as possible since we'll be constantly on the move (4 interstate flights), but also want to have all reach I need. I'll be in Nome, Barrow, Denali, and the Kenai Peninsula.
For wildlife, I'm thinking of bringing my two camera bodies (1DX and 7D mark ii), both tele extenders, the 70-200mm f/2.8, and the my new 100-400 mark ii, which I love! Maybe a flash setup also...it's all fairly light and I can get around easily. I also have the 600mm f/4 and the 400mm f/4 DO....I really like both but not sure if the additional reach, weight, tripod, and size is worth it. I'd imagine that it will all come down to how close I can get and whether a good deal of the birds are tame...I just don't know.
Thx for any input!
Josh
