To Cambodia we go....

In a few weeks time, if all goes according to plans, I will be going to Cambodia for 8 days as part of a social work group. There is a mixture of both excitement and distress as I plan my trip. Excitement because of the photo opportunities afforded to me. Distress because of the mental and preparation I have to go through. Lets talk about the fun part. I am currently planning to bring the following equipment: 2 camera bodies - ID Mark III dSLR - EOS 3 film camera (with Kodak T-MAX 400) 3 lenses - EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L II - EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS - EF 50mm f/1.8 (or f/1.4) 2 speedlites - 580 EX - 580 EX II 1 Macbook I think that just about covers it. I was tossing between the primes and the zooms and decided that the flexibility of the zooms is more important though I will be bringing 1 prime lens and the EF 50mm f/1.8 seems like the likely candidate. Small, light and cheap. I decided against the EF 85mm f/1.2 L because of weight as well as slow focussing. I don't want to being the EF 35mm f/1.4 L because the EF 16-35mm zoom covers that range. Though if I can find a 135mm or even a 200mm I'll bring that instead of the telezoom. Again, weight considerations. I'll talk about the emotional preparation later......
