Thanks Subash. I hate changing lenses! Even more in the digital age and the dangers of dust on the sensor. For a trip like this I go with two K-1 bodies, three basic lenses. And maybe something special like a 50/1.2 or a Macro, depending. In this case I had the big-three zooms: 15-30/2.8, 24-70/2.8, and 70-200/2.8. In a very few cases in the Galapagos or in the Amazon region a longer lens would have been nice, but most of the time the wildlife was too close for something like a 300mm. The first half day at Machu Picchu, I used 24-70 and 70-200. Very few shots at the 200 end. The next morning I used 15-30 and 24-70.
