Re: What lenses should I choose for light travel-kit?

I just had a vacation recently, and in retrospect I think the ideal lens would be the 16-50 2-2.8, and an ultrawide (either the Samsung fisheye or possibly the Rokinon 12 f/2).  If budget allows, I would also want the Olympus Stylus 1 as a portable telephoto option.

I understand that none of those are on your list.  Among those on your list, I would get the 20 2.8. 30 f/2 is too tight. 18-55 might be ok too, but I worry about low light.

Have a safe and fun trip!

Best regards,

Mic
