Your right. You might consider an 18-400 lense. I really like my 18-200 Tamron for a walk around lense but I think for what Teresa and yourself are talking about the 18-400 would be fine. Plenty of wide on the bottom and long on top. Unless of course your going on a photo safari? Then speciality lense might be a better answer. I have a 55-300 Nikon I used at field trials but bottom end could be longer and when I got it I knew nothing about an 18-400, if I had that is what I'd have got. Then again I don't really care for speciality lense's anyway. To limited in what they do and I suspect more money than I have to spend these days. If I recall right, this photo was taken with an 18-200 Tamron on my D7000. Either that or the 25-250 lense on my Panosonic Leumix. Either way lot of fire smoke and I think it still came out pretty good.The need for swapping lenses is not for the camera setting but for the functions of the lenses in this case. I'm going on a safari, and will need a wide angle for the landscape and a telephoto for the wildlife.
