[QUOTE="Lou, post: 796662, member: 12546"] I like your lens choices. Having only one body for a trip of this distance, uniqueness and expense, would make me nervous! I would add another body, even if it were only a light weight used D60! Traveling light is a passion with me. I would minimize my clothes and other gear in favor of photography gear! Suggestions for clothes: microfiber trousers, lightweight and washable almost anywhere. Best trousers: the convertible one that zip off at the knee- presto, long pants for chilly climes and Bermuda shorts for the heat of the day. Wear a jacket with nice pockets and don't hesitate to load them up. You can take off the jacket and lay it on the x-ray table to go through the scanner! Wear your heaviest clothes while flying: think shoes, pants, long sleeve shirts if included in your travel wardrobe. Need a warm jacket: look at down vests and light weight down jackets: not the big parkas. Luggage: a lightweight rectangular duffle bag and a camera/computer backpack. Are you limited to just these two pieces or can you can a personal bag: i.e. a man bag? Maybe one of the Rick Steves shoulder bags? [/QUOTE]
