Thanks. Actually, I used the standard 18-55 all day until I ran into the first bear. In that case I did feel comfortable stopping and getting the camera out. However, after the first couple of shots I went up the road a piece, and parked the bike. Then I changed lenses and went back to get some more shots of him. I went ahead and left it on for the duration of the journey.
