Besides my landscape lenses,
my 17-40, 24-105, 24 Tilt Shift, and 70-200,
and my toy lens, Canon 400 5.6L, I'm debating whether to take my 500.
Is it too much lens for the wildlife ops I may encounter there or is it too much to carry?
Landscapes are my main objective there; rivers; streams; mountains; etc., but I'd love to get wildlife shots there too. In Shenandoah, I did well simply with the 70-200 2.8 and a 1.4x.
I'm driving up there, so airline limitations is not an issue.
This is my first time out there so for those experienced with the area (will be hanging out in Gatlinburg for 3 days; Blowing Rock for 3 days with drive up Blue Ridge Parkway through Ashville up to Otter Creek.
