Actually, I might look for the 35-105 zoom. It's the one I have. If you
have the f4, I personally would not duplicate focal lengths unless you are
not happy with the results you are getting. You may want to consider the
65-200 f4. Then you have 35-200 covered. This should handle most of your
shots. Then add a super wide like a 24mm when you are able. Think about
bringing an extra camera body as well.
