Im going with my partner to China for 2 weeks: Hong Kong, Yellow Mountains, Shanghai & Beijing.. so mostly crowdy cities with a nature break in the middle - now having a difficult decision to make - what gear to take to keep it as light as possible, but not to regret not having the right tools with me..
The choice is:
6D
+ Samyang 14mm/2.8
+ Sigma 35mm/1.4
+ Tamron 90mm/2.8 macro
+ Canon 200mm/2.8L
EOS M + 22mm/2.0 (~35mm ff)
Im thinking of taking EOS M+22mm pancake for regular shots plus 6D+200/2.8 for the rest, what will save me from changing lenses (which I want to avoid on a holiday).. just wondering if the 6D will get much use with the tele or will I just end up with a hundred of silly candid shots
As difficult as shooting 200mm prime may be, Id hate to leave it at home.. Im in love with this lens and what it produces. Still.. Samyang is great for unusual shots, Sigma shines when its dark and Tamron may be a more reasonable choice than 200, to show a bit of background. Oh dear.. any suggestions?
Is 200mm your favorite "long" focal length ? Personnaly I've switched from this 200mm f/2.8 to a 70-200 f/4, really more versatile for my usage, with the same weight.
