On a recent trip I took only the 28-105 FA 4-5.6 and the M200/4, as at that time it covered everything I had, except a 135 and a 400mm, which would have been just too heavy. I also took the AF330FTZ flash, and used 400 and 800 ASA Ektapress film. I found that covered most things pretty well, although I wished I'd had the 400 for a motor racing session at Brands Hatch. Nowadays I would certainly add the 18-35 zoom, just to cover the really wide end. If I had only the primes, it would have been the 28,50, 135 and 200. I know there is a big gap between the 50 and the 135, but, heck, I'd just have to use my feet! I know I appreciated the reach of the 200mm in Hong Kong for details of their bamboo scaffolding on a 35 storey building!
