<< With all this talk about zoom lenses and travel, I have a
question about "what lens to carry" again. I have a
limited collection of lenses, and I want to travel light.
I have the following lenses: 28/2.8, 50/1.8, 135/3.5,
28-48/4, 35-70/3.5-4.5 and 75-150/4. >>
For whatever my opinion might be worth, in your shoes I would take the
28mm/f2.8 wide angle lens, 35-70/f3.5-4-5 zoom and 75-150mm/f4 zoom.
The zooms will give you moderate wide angle to moderate telephoto coverage.
The 28mm will give you a bit more coverage in confined areas and add
an extra stop for lower light situations. Depending upon your photo plans,
I would suggest mostly 200 ASA film with a few rolls of 400 ASA, "just in
case." If you have a second camera or camera body keep the 400 ASA
film in it. Have a "photo-riffic" trip.
