Traveling to Costa Rica, which lenses would you take?

[ndross475]

Hello all, thought I would start a friendly dialogue / debate. I am headed to Costa Rica for a week, this will be my first trip leaving my Nikon at home. I have an x-e2 and an x-pro1, and x100s.  Plan on taking two just in case, it is the rain forrest. Lens options are. 23mm, 35mm, 56mm, 10-24mm, 18-55mm, and 55-200mm. What would you take and why?? Let the dialogue begin.

 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and ideas.

x100s, and the xe2 with 10-24 would be perfect for me

The 55-200 is a necessity for wildlife in the rain forest. This would be my first choice (or get a prototype of the 150-450 from Fuji. This would be be even better :-). 

 

Next choice would be 23 or wider, maybe the 10-24.

So far my idea is to leave the x-pro1 and 23mm behind and perhaps the 56mm. I have access to 23mm on the x100s which would also serve as a backup if the x-e2 were to fail.  I like the idea of the 55-200 for zooming in the rain forrest, and the 10-24 for any landscape shots. I can't imagine ever leaving the 35mm at home so that isn't likely. I'll get right on acquiring the prototype       I am sure Fuji would love the idea of sending that right over...I wish. Trying to make the kit fit in a Tenba Messenger DNA 13.

 

Thanks for the replys
