    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    It would be great to see some photos from the trip...now you have me thinking..I guess I could get two capture clips and have the camera and 24-70 on one side and the 400mm 5.6 on the other side to help balance :) On a slightly more serious note, I was half thinking of a light tripod to try some...

    :) - No worries - I had actually seen that video last week when searching for the same thing on youtube...I also watched the longer one he put up about the camino, and found it to be quite informative, and a pleasant watch..

    what is it with performers and moody lighting, don't they realize us photographers are trying to make them look good :) I am in the Canon camp, and picked up the R6, it is a low light beast, night and day compared with my trusty 70D.. Dont know much about the D5/6 but I hear the D850 is great.

    Thanks William - low light and I have a decent relationship...although mostly shooting concerts in dark clubs :)

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    I am not in the market for another camera at the moment, I don't have the shelf space :) The buildings look amazing from the images I have seen but my budget wont stretch to a T/S lens right now...so fixing in post is on the cards for me... I'll be sure to share when I get back, and while I am...

    Thanks for the input Juanma..I do have a lightweight 70-200 that I could add to the mix...I do a lot of wildlife photography, so I often bring this when I travel. Decisions, decisions. Buen Camino, maybe our paths will cross :)

    The Capture Clip is the next purchase I am making, Sounds like we will be similarly kitted out...

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    I like your style :) Seeing a voigtlander on the road would be great. I am certainly leaning towards my medium tele for the trip based on input, which is largely what I was thinking anyway.

    Thanks for the input, you thinking is very much along the same lines as my own.. :)

    Thanks for sharing, I watched this last night, I loved the presenters approach of presenting the rough with the smooth, and the fact that he was some matter of fact, rather than being overdramatic.. Thanks for the recommendation.

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    Hi Paul - that is an interesting and incorrect assumption to jump to, I have been a successful photographer for more than 25 years :) My question was aimed at minimizing the equipment that I am potentially carrying. I have not walked the camino before, so the feedback from fellow photographers...

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    To be honest whatever pleases my eye. Whenever I go on a trip I try to capture the atmosphere of the place I am visiting. This typically ends up being a mixture of close up photography, people, landscape and nature..

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    I couldn't carry 18kg back from the store let alone all the way across Spain :)

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    :) - I would be sure to keep it in a dry bag when taking to shower, just to not alarm anyone..I actually realized as well that I still have my old 70D, so I think I will take this one instead..then if there are any sticky fingers it would be less of a loss.

    What lens or lenses did you used most if you carried a DSLR or mirrorless camera?

    Thanks Dave - your insight is valuable, I was thinking vistas, people and some close up will be my main subjects. I am currently debating between 24-70 or just my 50mm, but I think the flexibility of the zoom will win out over it's additional weight. Regarding security, it is for sure a concern...
