Traveling to China. Need kit advice.

Thanks.


My initial thought was to go with the 24-105 since I have a 50mm 1.4 for shooting at night. Since this is a once in a lifetime trip (well, so far), I don't want to miss anything (or I want to miss as little as possible). Should a wider angle lens be on my purchase list? Or do you think the 24mm is wide enough?

10-22mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm. It's aperfect combo. You want to have a complete zoom range so you don't miss any shots. Don't let weight let you compromise on your photo's, ex. leaving your 70-200mm home and kicking yourself for not getting it with you.

Depending on your budget constraints, I would go with the Canon 10-22 for a wide-angle lens. However, the wide-angle would be more likely restricted to landscape and architecture type photos.


My wife and I traveled to the Seychelles for the first time in 10 years, and I brought along the following:


Canon 28-135 - used 20%


Canon 50 1.8 II - used 20%


Sigma 10-20 4-5.6 EX - used 60%


Tripod - used 10%


LOL....not sure if this helps...
