The time I was forced to travel light recently, I carried a 28-70 f/2.8 & 80-200 f/2.8 along with a 1.4x converter. Those lenses will cover full frame. I carried an *ist-D with a PZ-1P for backup. Found that didn't do enough for me on the wide end, so I found a dealer and added the 18-35 FAJ lens while on the road. OTOH, I'm leaving tomorrow for 16 days in the American Southwest, driving from the east coast so I won't have to worry about weight/space restrictions. Planning to take the above kit for K10D [with the *ist-D as backup now] augmented with a 300 f/2.8, 100A f/2.8 macro, and, of course, the PZ-1P. I'll also take my LX kit [K1000 for backup] with a 24A f/2.8, 35A f/2.0, 50M f/1.4 & 100M f/2.8. ... plus a medium format kit and a large format [4x5] kit. I guess I'm just the "Howard Johnson's" of travel photography. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
