So I'm taking the train from Oakland to Santa Barbara next week to pick up my new X1. I will of course be doing some sight seeing as well as driving back up the coast for a ways. I have way too much gear to bring it all, so what do you guys think? My 100-400 will be on my 1D4, as I will probably be checking out the zoo while I am there. That leaves my 5D2. I could bring the 24-105, my 16-35, or instead bring my 20,40, 50 and 85 primes. I'm thinking I want at least one 2.8 lens for new car on the beach type shots, but I'm not sure. I have a big camera bag, but with too much gear it gets very heavy quickly.
Really I'm just bored at work right now and day dreaming about how cool next week will be compared to right now. I hope to take a but load of pictures, for the train trip-on.
