I thought of one more reason against taking a 100-400. If you use the Paris Metro, a 100-400 would make it obvious that you are a tourist. This would attract the attention of thieves.

In Paris, it would be best to walk around with one camera body and lens, along with a small camera bag.

LOL! There are so many tourists with expensive camera gear in Paris and on the Metro that this would be the last reason I left my gear home.  However, a word to the wise on protecting your gear is in order wherever in this world you travel.
