[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 95256, member: 3903"] How do you think we should know if you'll need that 100 mm difference while you're in Europe? I don't think anyone can answer that for you, and when you find out, it'll be too late. But, seriously, I think for traveling the 200 should be fine with the 5100. It should be a little lighter and smaller so, better for travel. When I went to Europe, I only carried the 18-200 and a 35 1.8 and there is no pics that was missed because I didn't have my 300 reach. So there was my 2 cents. Safe travel and enjoy your Nikon! Oh, one more question. Which Canon were you using? Did you have lenses with it? Was it a dslr? If yes to any of the above, are you sure it's a good thing to switch brands just before going on a year long trip? There is a learning curve involved with any new camera. Just make sure you have time to use it quite a bit BEFORE you leave. [/QUOTE]
