Going to Sedona and Grand Canyon in the Spring and trying to pack as little as possible. I’ll be with my family so not much dedicated time for photography.
I’m planning to take one lens (24-70 2.8) due to weight (arthritis) and dust concerns. My main concern is if I’ll significantly miss out without a wide angle or telephoto zoom?
1-2 nights of Astro: 24mm f2.8 is decent, hard to justify a specialty lens
Family pics: 24-70 is perfect Canyons/hikes: is 24mm with pano enough?
Lookouts: Is 70mm significantly limiting reach?
This.
The last thing anybody needs to be doing is taking yet another set of “snapshots” of the Grand Canyon, or anything else. It’s all been done to death and is all over the Internet if you need one. Nobody has said anything interesting in a GC picture for decades. Think of something interesting to show. And family.
