Re: Lens for Antarctic Trip

the main use for the 300 is for birds the follow the ship.  Even though the petrels and albatrosses are large, they are seldom close.  On land the the wide to moderate telephoto is most useful. Pengiuns are generally not to far away.

Depending on what airline  in Argentina,  there may be a 22 lb (11 kg) carry on limit.  There only time I saw a problem was  leaving Ushasia. ( several ships passengers may leaving on the same day).  From we arrived in the BA,  it was about a 30 minute walk to the international terminal.  I would suggest 3 hours for the transfer.
