Hi everyone,

I'm perplexed on what kit to take for a 2 weeks Western and Eastern Caribbean cruise in February.

I've got my 5Dii as well as EF24-105, EF16-35 and EF28-300 lenses.

Should I take all three lenses?

I'm trying to decide where I can keep the weight down.

Thanks for all advice offered.

I buy the sweet lenses to use them. I would hate to need a lens and have it sitting at home. Do I carry more than I need at time? Yes. Do I always have the lens I want, Yes.
