[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 596712, member: 9240"] Some real life knowledge from me to you. 1. You [B][I]cannot[/I][/B] use a TC on the 24-120mm due to the rear element. 2. You're going to want 18mm on the short end with a DX camera. I bought the 28-300mm for a trip to Yosemite and wound up using the 18-105mm kit lens most of the time (a damn fine and inexpensive lens, btw). No experience with the 18-300mm, but if you're not opposed to 2 lenses I will tell you that the 70-200mm f4 is nice and light for what it is and great on the D500 and the results with the 1.4X TC are very good. That and something that fills in the wide stuff for you would work. I don't have any shots with the 18-105mm on my D500 since it lives on my IR camera, but I could certainly shoot some. My only qualm with the lens is the plastic mount which could break if accidentally dropped or knocked when changing on a hike. One of these days I'll get around to changing mine to metal. [/QUOTE]
