As usual when I go somewhere exotic, I get the "what did you take" questions. Be wary of my answers, however, as more often than not I'm not optimizing my equipment choices, but doing testing. To wit:
- D3 and D300 bodies for testing, Ricoh GX-100 compact.
- 14-24mm, 24-70mm, 70-300mm AF-S lenses, plus some other odds and ends, like the new 18-55mm VR. The lens choices were mostly test-driven, with only the 70-300mm chosen to purpose.
- Gitzo GT2530LVL with RRS BH-40 head and pano equipment.
- The usual filters, flash, and other paraphernalia, all wrapped in the ThinkTank Airport Antidote.
