Going on vacation - which lenses to take?

[robb01]

I am lea ving for London, Paris, and Munich in a week. I want to pack as light as possible, and might not take all of my lenses. That being said, which lens would you take?

Tokina 12-24mm

Nikon 50mm 1.8

Tamron 18-200mm

If you had to take only one, take the 18-200.
but I would take all 3

Are you going with friends? Family? Do you think you'll be taking more people photos or city photos?

It would be useful to take the 50 for it's size. Some situations it's a bit more discrete. London, Paris and Munich is buildings and people. Buildings want wide angle. People..how confident are you with street candids. Confident - take the 50 and the Tokina and use it close-in. Less confident - use the longer capabilities of the 18-200mm. I would take all three but to be light, just the 12-24 and the 50.

Just with my wife, a mix of both, probably a lot of snapshots too

I would take all of them just because, if it were me, I would, without a doubt, need the one(s) I didn't take and would be kicking myself the whole way back home! But if you really don't want to take all three, I would also say the 18-200.

if your not going for the shooting take the 18-200 other wise all three

My wife and I are flying to California in a couple of weeks and I opted to take everything I have(which isn't much). It all fits into one bag and I plan to carry it on. I just have the T1i, Sigma 17-70 and Canon 70-200(and flash and accessories).

Take it all if at all possible!
