I was thinking if I take the D4, then my 24 to 70 would probably be just right, and maybe the 100 Micro. For the M8 I have the 21, 28, 35, and the 50 would probably cover most situations.

Forget the telephotos..... Nothing is far enough away... ( except building details) take the widest lenses you can..... ( I think you have a 21 ASPH Elmarit?) It will barely be wide enough. Exception.. a 75 or 90.... just for reaching out..... ( My experiences in Europe call for much wider lenses than I ever thought.... Our last trip was to Belgium and Holland, and the 21 was too long...) My most used lens was the 50..... but the 28 of the TriElmar was #2..... Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net Or I may just bring the M8 and lenses, which is what i did back in 2008 when we were there for only 2 days. Looking forward to seeing everyone.
