Just returned from a 21 day cruise to Dalmation coast, Turkey, Greece, Israel, Egypt, Malta and Italy with the theme of Ancient and Holy Lands. Took 1D4 and 5D3 with 35L, 16-35L and 24-105L lens. Experience was that I used 5D3 with 24-105L 80% of the time but it would have performed well for all my needs including low light situations. Considered taking the 70-300L but decided was too heavy and glad that I left it at home. I use a hand-strap on the 5D3 and for me that is preferable to a neck type strap. the 24-105L was as perfect as I could expect toating around all day. Reach was more than adequate and crop did a good with of any additional need. The lower end was workable for tight and wide opportunities. I really like this combination for varied "walking around" photo opportunities on a trip of this scale.

Thank you, winoheel!
It is encouraging to read your post and see that the 24-105 could perform well for all your needs. I understand very well that you left your big 70-300 at home. The thing that bothers me is that my two best pictures ever were both taken with maximum zoom 135 which equals 202 mm in fullframe. I would really like the 5D3, its DR, IQ, and low light capability. And I would like to make do with one lens when travelling light. But it is difficult to get everything I want. Maybe in the end I will have to be content with the IQ of my present Pentax equipment, the K-5 + 18-135, due to need for zoom range?
