What CAMERA LENSES should I take for traveling (Nikon user)?
I’m heading to Asia for 3 months – can anyone recommend a good mix of lenses to take for my Nikon DSLR? I like to shoot pretty much anything – landscapes, architecture (old and modern), candid portraits, photojournalism-style shots in public places, night photos…
So far my mix includes the kit lens (17 – 55mm), a 50mm f1.4, and possibly a Sigma 10-20mm for wide angles. I don’t really want to take more than two lenses, though, because I am hoping to store all of my gear in a small inconspicuous shoulder bag that doesn’t scream “steal me”. So I’m thinking of leaving the kit lens at home, even though I am used to using it as a default in just about any situation. Am I going to miss the range it offers, or will the 10-20mm work as a default lens?
I don’t do digital, so can’t offer any specific recommendations.
With that in mind, were I you, I would likely take the 10-22 and 50mm 1.4. I personally love wide angles, as well as low-light shots, which is why those two would be my choice. I will often go out with only a 20mm or 24mm on my film cameras, and if I had such a lens as you had, it would probably be one of my favorites.
My other inclination would probably be to pick up the 18-200 VR, if you can find one, and take that along with the 10-22. The 18-200 seems to get great reviews for what it is, and these two lenses would certainly cover you well.
Your 50mm is small enough, though, that I would personally take it along regardless of what other lenses I took. Most of the time, you’ll hardly know you’re carrying it around with its size and weight. When the light gets low, though, you’ll be glad you brought it along.
