Which lens should I take to Australia?

I will go to Sydney and Cairns for about 10 days in the end of June.

 

I have 18-55, 14/2.8 and 35/2 lens.

 

I'd like to take 2 of them and I think the 14/2.8 must be taken.

 

Any suggestion for the remaining one? zoom 18-55 or prime 35?

 

Or any other opinions?

For Australia a lens with a bag ( to put a kangaroo in ) .

For Austria a lens with with good profile to climb the Alps.

For America a 66 mm lens to shoot the Route.

For Germany a super wide angle lens, for everything is bigger there,

For Africa no chrome body.

 

Are you kidding? Is this a serious question ? Do you know what to do with a camera ? Do you know why they invented the Zoom ?

Stay at home and spend your money to buy a book on photography an go for a photo-school.

 

Which bastard sold you the extra 14 and 35 mm ?  Because of the wider aperture and the DOF ? Wider aperture .... and what about rising the ISO ?Rubbish. Waist of money !

The 18 - 55 mm is the must. Extra batteries. An UV filter. Enjoy your photo-days.

As you may have taken a hint from above, there is nothing geographically specific about any lens. On my last trip (Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks) I carried everything from a fisheye, an 114° 14mm full-frame lens to an 83× zoom with a maximum field of view equal to a 2000mm lens. All were used to the max. My X-Pro1 had the 8mm Samyang fisheye, 14mm, 18mm, 35mm and 60mm. Whatever you have, will be useful.
