Re: Which wide angle lens for Egypt tour? And bag…

My three lens travel kit:

  • Samyang 8mm f2.8 FE II
  • Fuji XF 10-24
  • Fuji XF 16-80

I've sometimes brought my XC 50-230, but I find I rarely ever use it.

The Samyang (=Rokinon) 8mm fisheye is quite small, and I find many occasions to get creative with it.

If I'm on a tour where I know I won't have time to be switching lenses, I put one lens on my X-T100 (a nice small camera) and the other on my X-S10.

With just one body, I start w/ the 16-80 until I need wider and switch to the 10-24. Then I shoot with that until I need longer. Both are versatile lenses.
