What I found was that the vast majority of pictures were taken from 18mm to around 40mm. I took my Nikon D7000 with a Sigma 17-50mm F2.8 lens and probably used it for 95% or better of all my pictures down there. I have stepped up to the D600 full frame with the Tamron 24-70 F2.8 and this is what I would take now. You have a lot more trouble getting wide enough and fast enough than needing to zoom in with a long telephoto shot. You can check out my pictures <a href="http://www.jeffimpeyphotography.com/Other/Walt-Disney-World-Christmas/20742357_6vwz7L#!i=1647739327&k=Cc8NSLt" target="_blank">HERE</a> if you would like to see some examples.This is one of many examples in my gallery that found the faster glass a big help. This was taken handheld a little after midnight looking from the rear of Cinderella's Castle. If you look through the walkway in the castle you can see all the way down main street and see the big Christmas tree in front of the train station at the opposite end of main street. You don't take shots like this without the faster glass. Many of my images were taken way after dark or inside using the Nikon D7000 with the Sigma F2.8 17-50mm lens.[ATTACH=full]47944[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
