Re: What lenses to bring on a trip to Rome?
Iwas Born in Rome, and I leaved there for 18 years. It is the best place in the world to take Architectural pictures, of different times. The only stile that is not represented is modern architecture.There are tiny roads in the center, specially in Trastevere, but there are very large roads and squares as well. Churches and museums are really beautyful, for churches if you can bring with you a light tripod you will be able to use it very often.
As usual for architecture the best choice is a lens that do not suffer from distorsion, so a tse lens is the ideal choice, specially if you can rent it for the occasion. I think that the 24 is not wide enough on a APS-C body, I think that the 17 tse is the best, otherwise I would go for the 10-22 zoom, that will be very flexible in the variaty of situations you will find. If you can bring also a 50mm f 1.4, the night life in the major streets/squares of the center is very active, and you will have beautiful occasions to shoot street photo. Night landescapes of the monument in the city center are great as well.
