[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 166730, member: 986"] Agreed but I think it also warrants discussion. If I'm visiting somewhere for the first and potentially only time, I'm bringing my best glass (e.g. Nikkor 17-55) regardless of weight. If I'm going to be on organized events (e.g. tours) or if weather is a concern where I won't have time or opportunity to change lenses or control pace, I'll bring a general purpose zoom (e.g. Nikkor 18-200). If I'm going somewhere with the family and only doing candid shots, I'll bring my V1. If I'm going somewhere that I've been before or may be scouting out, I might bring a general purpose lens or the V1 kit. Personally I rarely bring a tripod or monopod on family vacations so I tend to bring faster lenses. The OP didn't say if space, weight, convenience and/or available time were deciding factors. IMHO they can and should impact the discussion as much as lens features and capabilities. [/QUOTE]
