Yeah, I know the problem only too well. I tend to start with the 55-300
fitted move up or down if necessary. For a quick wide angle, two-shot
panos can do the trick.

As regards the lens, I think you’ll find that you will still have the wrong
lens mounted about half the time.
Based on my 18-250 it was basically never the best lens for any particular
shot. I pretty much treated it as the body cap for my camera for quite a
while, because while it was never the *right* lens, if I didn’t have time to
mount the right lens, it would generally do well enough.
As it turns out, when I was loading the van, I startled a junco in my front
yard, but it didn’t seem to care that much, it only moved a short ways. I
thought about grabbing the 50-500 but I realized the 18-250 was in the bag in
my hands. I took some shots with it, how better to test a new lens?, and after
a quick look I’ll say that the bigma might have done better, but I think I’ll
still get a few decent ones, and had I tried to get the bigma the bird would
have flown away and I wouldn’t have gotten anything.
