Is this a big mistake? Carribbean for a year with the X-A2 27mm & 18mm, instead of 16-50mm

Well, it seems to me that I've been talked in to dumping the 18mm and taking the zoom instead. It helps that the chance of lens rot/fungus means the risk of financial loss is reduced. I get to keep the 27mm - which is more emotional than reasonable - so that can double as my low-light and compact solution.

Emotions aside, just try out the 27 in low light before you leave. My 18 easily outperforms my 27 when the light gets low or indoors. Especially on a CDAF body.
