Vacation gear
I just took a week off from work and got a last minute trip to Greece. Now I can't decide what gear to bring and if I need to buy something that's missing.
I have this to choose from: 5D2 7D 24-105L 70-200/2.8L IS Tokina 12-24 Nifty fifty 430EX I think I'll bring my TT retrospective 10 shoulderbag. My Dakine Sequence will stay home. So, gimmie some advice. Please. |

When I travel I take my 24-105, 70-200, and a flash. I never feel as though I am missing something but I don't shoot super wide angle so you may as well either take the 7D and chuck it in the bag or take the 5D and leave the Tokina at home.

Re: Vacation gear
I'd just take the 24-105 and the 7D. Gives you the 1.6x for that extra reach on the telephoto end just in case you need it. Doesn't give you much of a wideangle, but then just do panoramas

Leave the 7D and the nifty fifty at home...
