[QUOTE="ejronin, post: 625235, member: 43743"] It depends on what you're really looking to do. If you're looking to have time to set up your shots or spend time with your new wife? I'd go with the Nikon the 55-200 because it's [I]much[/I] smaller than the 17-200 - the EDII has a zoom lock to compact it down pretty small compared to earlier versions and the IQ is more than acceptable for tooling around while it covers a good range in daylight. I'd also take take the 35mm. Its a good portrait lens, it's compact for street photography, it goes below the zoom of the 55-200 and it's not very expensive if something bad happens. I think you should try to consider that the larger the lens you're carrying around in a foreign country, the more of a target you can paint yourself. I haven't had any of my gear stolen, but I can point you to several who have... Just my $.02 [/QUOTE]
