[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 204324, member: 8705"] I'm planning to fly to Salt Lake, get an RV, do a loop of Yellowstone, back past Salt Lake to Bryce Canyon. From there we go to Vegas and get a car. Then it's Death Valley, Yosemite and finish in San Francisco. We are staying for several days in most places and spending 3 weeks in total. I have the 16-35 for wide angle so that's covered. I'm happy that the 28-300 is not a pro lens as I used an 18-200 on my DX gear for years. Whilst not perfect these super zooms do a more than ok job, especially if you have light. I guess I'm just pondering if its actually worth buying a 28-300 given that I can't see me consciously choosing between it and the 24-120 afterwards unless the IQ difference is big , so one would get little use. For most of the time the 24mm is worth more than the 300mm. So I may already have what I need. Maybe I should just pack the 70-200 2.8 with my 2x teleconvertor and know I'm well covered.
