No way ! It's complete overkill and I cant imagine what you'd use it for.

I did Barcelona with a 16-35 and 70-200 f/4 which was the perfect combination. If you really want more reach, you can always add a 1.4x

Blok.

We think alike.

I am currently here in Barcelona as I type. My "Greek Trilogy" the 16-35 f/4 L IS, 24-70 f/4 L IS and 70-200 f/4 L IS are with me all day in my ThinkTank Retrospective 40 Shoulder bag. I even have 1.4x EX III in the room in my back pack if needed. So far, no reason to walk around with it in my shoulder bag...........yet.

Barcelona is fab - can't wait to go back

BTW, one of my favourite pieces of kit when I'm out and about with a couple of lenses is the lens flipper: http://lensflipper.com/ I can change lenses so quickly with it, I get more shots now.
