Hi all,
I am relatively new to photography and am not a cyclist however I'm going with a few people to bike Provence France in September (Backroads is the company).
If anyone is a cyclist or knows the region I'd appreciate the input. I'm thinking of getting a small lopro for the biking( we'll cover 20-35 miles a day), you can ride at your own pace, stop and take pics etc. and there will be time in the villages in the afternoon to walk around and explore.
I just don't want to put too much on my back thinking it will be cool and find out I was wrong. I'm in my early 30's and reasonably fit but still.
Ive got the x-t1 23,35, 56 primes. I plan on buying a lens or two prior to the trip as I know bringing a bunch of primes isn't practical and I don't yet own a wide angle lens which I know I'll need.
Some standard landscapes( although I like adding close up subjects sometimes with shallow depth of field), villages, landscape portraits of my friends, pics at dinner in tight space, would cover what I'll shoot. I'm not touring Europe other than a couple days in Germany so no cathedrals etc.
