I usually take the Canon 16-35 2.8, 24-70 2.8, 70-200 2.8 and two bodies and a couple of primes. I see the Fuji 50-240 is about the same size as the 70-200 but weighs 1/3 less. The Canons are excellent but I'm thinking that a couple of X bodies, the 14, 35 and 50-140 would overall be a better solution. Ken On 1/31/2015 1:15 PM, zoeica at mac.com wrote: > AF is damn fast!
