Re: Which Combo for Travel?


I'm a little late to this party. But, let me begin by saying what I usually say at the end. Use what works for you. What I take depends on where I'm going and what I'll be shooting. But, my basic kit consists of two A7CR bodies, a 20-70 G, and a 70-200 f4 G II. The A7RV bodies, 24-70mm GM II, and 70-200mm GM II stay home. I love the 70-200mm f4 G II for travel. If I think I'll need a wider lens, I might take the 16-35 GM II instead of the 20-70 G. If I think I'll need a longer lens, I'll take the 300 GM plus teleconverters. What ever I take goes into a 20L camera bag which goes into a hard side roller suitcase which goes on the plane with me. If it won't fit into the 20L bag, it doesn't go. My tripod goes into my checked bag. Have a great trip.
