Dream with me: Alaska cruise, money is no object

[Kayaker72]

Regardless of where I am going, with the largest Lensrental gift certificate ever but still going on a trip, I am going to try a couple of cinema lenses. If I had to decide right now, I'd probably grab the CN-E 24 T1.5 and the CN-E 30-300 T2.95-3.7. Just checked and lensrentals doesn't seem to rent the CN-E....but in my dream they would. I don't believe I saw anyone mention smaller cameras, with the biggest lens rentals gift certificate ever, I'd probably rent the Leica M9 or Sony RX1, something to put under the coat and take fishing with me in Alaska .


Other than that, and getting more specific about Alaska, I am in pretty much agreement with others, I'd have the 1.4x and 2.0x TC's. I don't recall seeing them mentioned, but I'd do something like this:

Hiking "Kit"

24-70 f/2.8 II
70-200 f/2.8 IS II
2x TC
Various filters and light weight tripod stand (you know I am going looking for a waterfall)
As I am on a cruise, these would be day trips, but I may still rent a f-stop Loka pack.

Bear Viewing "Kit"

1.4x and 2x TC
24-70 f/2.8 II
200-400 f/4 1.4tc
600 mm f/4 II
800 mm f/5.6
Tripod system

Eagle Viewing "Kit"
Probably about the same as the Bear Viewing "Kit"...I've read about some locations were the eagles are very close to you, so probably throw in the 70-200 f/2.8 IS II

Landscape

24 mm f/1.4
24-70 f/2.8 II
70-200 f/2.8 IS II
(could add a prime or two here)
Needed filters and filter holding systems.
Tripod
Medium format system (going with Lensrentals, the Pentax 645D, but normally would have considered others)

Ok...time to wake up and go to work....I think I pretty much ignored any size or carrying capacity limitations....but hey, my dream....
