The 14-140 ii is a wonderful lens, and should go on all trips in my opinion.

You should have a fast 2.8 or 1.7 for night scenes where you can't use a flash. I would trade your old zooms in for a wide and maybe a 42.5 1.7 or if possible a 2.8 zoom, but the Sigma 2.8s are great lens too.

Selling lenses??? Parting permanently with friends??? Is that allowed??? I might just get around to it when the GAS for a 2.8 zoom gets unbearable, but not for this trip. Thanks for the vote of confidence in the 14-140mm!
