I went to Scotland as usual.  The least-used lens this time was the
second-hand Elmarit-M 21mm (which I had had coded).  I think this was
because the weather was so good and I was able to use the WATE which I got a
lot of practice with (great for cliff edges on the NW coast).  Will post
some more Scottish pictures when I have time.

Best wishes,

Matthew

As a learning question.....

We have all been on vacation this past year, with our various cameras and
lenses.  However, for me, some of the "stuff" I carried around just never
got used on the trip.  So that we can learn from each other, the question
is....

You went on vacation with a bag full of lenses.  Some were ( almost)  never
used on the trip.  Which lenses were not used, and what was wrong with your
selection?

Personally, I brought my Hasselblad outfit.  The 1.4X and 2X Hassy
Converters never came out of the bag.  The Pacific NorthWest ( Portland and
Coastal Oregon and California) Scenic  is a wide angle lens kind of place.
A normal lens is sufficient as long.  However, bring along your wides.....
you will use them.
