I am planning on going to the carnival this weekend for my first time. However I do not want to be lugging around all my kit (before you say there isnt much I know lol) as I believe pick pocketing happens a lot unfortunately. So my question I guess, is which of my 3 lenses in my signature do you guys recomend I should take? :oops:

Fuji X-T3
Fuji 16-80mm F4
Viltrox 56mm F1.4

I would take the 70-300 and the 18-55. Most likely there will be a lot of people so the telephoto would give you a chance to find some higher ground and peek above the crowds.

70-300 be great for candids and dancers.

Fully agree with this suggestion. Then again,the 50mm is not exactly a heavy lens to carry around. Unless you are likely to be taking portraits, it may be superfluous.
