I'm heading to Dublin, Ireland this summer for a week. Just a relaxing trip and just staying in Dublin. I am going to take some gear of course but hope to travel light. I'll be taking a small travel tripod and ball head. I hope to fit it all in a shoulder bag that is good for a body and standard zoom and two other lenses max. Here is what I'm considering:
5D III - This will be the only body I take. I have a 7D as back up but will probably leave it home and take my chances.
Canon 24-70 2.8 II - Not small or light but a good general zoom that is going to deliver quality shots, with the 2.8 speed. I sold my 24-105, so that's out.
Canon 24 3.5 Tilt Shift II - Not a genaral purpose lens, heavy, bulky etc. However, I hope to shoot some nice buildings etc. and for that this lens is hard to beat. I'm debating taking it but I know when I do use it I'm going to get the best shot possible. Any feedback here?
Canon 17-40 - Small, light, cheap. I know I can leave this or the 24-70 home and get by. Another tough call, but the wide angle may come in handy.
Canon 28 2.8 IS - This is coming. Small, light and excellent for indoor use or general walking around. I used it a good bit in France and Belgium last year.
I also have a Canon 70-200 2.8 IS II. Great lens but it's a brick. I really think this won't earn it's weight in the bag.
Any feedback would be great. I'm sure the arcitecture over there will be great, so what should I do? Also looking to have as little on me as possible for theft and security reasons, although getting the best shots will override this.
