Iceland/Paris/London

Iceland is very dim during winter. I'm equipped with primes only because of that. But having only two primes may be a bit too limiting. If I could only have two lenses to live with for all situations I would probably pick 24-70/2.8 L and 200/2.8 L. 24mm is pretty wide on FF and the 200/2.8 L takes teleconverters without too much hit.

Another option might be a 16-35/2.8 L, 50/1.4 and 200/2.8 L. It's three lenses but the 50/1.4 is small. A friend of mine was in Paris lately only with a 20D and 35/2, shot great images and told me the added low light capabilty of the prime made fully up for not being able to zoom.

Hope you enjoy your trip.

Best, Hrannar Orn Hauksson
