Jul 15, 2012 16:21 | #2 Last year, on Kodiak, I had the 7D with both the 100-400 and 70-200 f/2.8 II. I did use both, but this year I took, and will again take next month, only the 100-400 of the two. That said, when wading (fishing), I used a Sony point and shoot kept in my vest. This year, the island has had a lot of wet weather and the higher end gear stayed near the lodge.

Otherwise, a 17-55 for a walk-around and a 10-22 to capture the vastness of it all. Add a long zoom like 70-300 if you want some bird shots and such, but that's going to add some weight.
