[QUOTE="TonyD315, post: 276221, member: 19804"] I have the 35mm 1.8 and while I do love it, I sometimes found myself putting on the kit 18-55 because the 35 was either too tight or not enough reach. It really depends on what kind of shots you want to get. If you have certain things planned for each day then I'd suggest bringing them and leaving what you don't think you'll need that specific day at the hotel. I can say that back in December I went to Disney for a few days. I was in a similar position. I ended up going with the Nikon 17-55 2.8 and honestly, it didn't come off my camera. (With the exception of the Animal Safari) I looked at Adorama, and they just wanted too much. Since I was going to use my debit card, they would actually withdrawal not only the price of the rental, but also the total replacement cost of the lens. They informed me that they would credit it back shortly after I returned it, but it could take a few business days. I ended up going with BorrowLenses.com They were awesome and worked with me. Since I ordered it around christmas, UPS was backed up. They actually put a call into UPS to have it held at the sorting facility for me to pick up. I would 100% rent from them again. Personally, I'd rent a fisheye. I think you could get some awesome shots of the redwoods with one... [/QUOTE]
