My FX dream team.

Hi,
Haha. I'm just doing this for fun.
Like what Ken Rockwell said, its ok to own everything but not ok to bring everything. (something like that)
Ya, its true, we don't rarely use everything we bring. Like for example, you carry a backpack loaded with prime lens, 70-200 f/2.8, wide angle, fish-eye. I have tried carrying that in Singapore. Yes, and I have learnt my lesson. So, i am gonna getting a Crumpler sling camera bag next. Anyway back to the topic.

What I will need for a whole trip to Europe (or anywhere else):
Nikon D700
Nikon 17-35 mm f/2.8
Nikon 70-200 mm f/2.8
Nikon 50 mm f/1.4

What else more do you think I need?
17 on FX is wide enough for me to cover landscape and shooting indoors.
70-200 is of course a good range.
35mm to 50mm is only 15mm.
50mm to 70mm is only 20mm.
Just a few steps should do the job.

But even so, these lens are too much. The 17-35 and 70-200 would already weigh me down. The 50 is ok. But, its ok, I guess I can manage.

Tyy
