Smile Re: SLR LENS for Antartica 2009!

To: Paul,

Your advice sounds good. Is the Lowe pro toploader a good bag good to use as a wist bag? or is there something else different. From reading posts over the last several months. Is better to stick with the 17-40, 24-70, 70-200, 300mm or maybe the 100 2.8 and leave the other lenses at home, the 50mm 1.4 which I have not used in 3 years. I mostly been using the first four and only used the 100 2.8 to take pictures of the instects. I just have to buy the special attachments for my monopod with the twist head to work right. I have the gitzo 3550. Deceided not to buy the tripod too much to carry and takes to long to set up when on a tour for a month. I just need to purchase the foot plates and bean bag. I have the ziplock 1 gallon sandwich bags for moisture control. Any more suggestions for Antartica and Iguizi falls? I know the histrogram is the best friend you can have on the camera and magic latin guide.
