I'll travel with 17-40 - PR on the body.
A few portraits and low light shots with 50f1.4.
70-200 to shoot the crowd, or for beachfront resorts

Always take my 17-40 and 70-200 for travel. Unless I wanna do portraits, i will leave my 50mm behind.

i use to bring the 24mm and a 50mm, trying to save up for a 24-70mm f2.8 from sigma, a smaller outfit for travel in the future alongside a 400D or a lecia M6 with 35mm would be fantastic!

Er no. It's because LancerCK is still of "new member" status.

Wink Re: Which combi of lens for your travel

From a glance I would think over there at NIKON CAMP are more participative (gauge from no. of voters)...

Come-on guys/gals, this just a simple survey: lets contribute!!

Thanks bro. At least now I know how come I couldn't participate in polls. But wonder at what postings should I chalk up before I becomes normal user which enable me to vote.

And to bro LAZyNPL, I would vote for wide zoom and tele prime (well that's what I have )

I normally take 3 lenses, depending on anticipated situation.

1 WA zoom, 1 Tele zoom and 1 fast lens.

I'm the kiasu sort so I'll bring quite a lot of stuff. At least 2 lenses, WA and tele zoom maybe a fast prime. Spend $$$ to travel if end up have those situations where you wanna take a pic and dun have the right gear is damn irritating.. Hur hur.

24-105mm for me when i went to Japan. The 24mm is wide enough for me for the buildings and 105mm is good for me to shoot along the streets and inside shops.
