November 4, 2007 3 Sleeps

The final rush is here! Three sleeps to go unless we follow Dave’s advice and just not sleep the last night (a ploy to make the travel time shorter.)

Someone asked what equipment I was bringing and I was a little shocked to see it in list form because I usually pack lightly, a maximum of one or two lenses. Anyway, I present the list of ingredients for this trip. Let’s see what kind of images I cook up with them:

2 – 24-105mm f/4
1 – 8mm f/3.5 (fisheye)
1 – 17-55mm f/2.8mm
1 – 17-40mm f/4
1 – 85mm f/1.8
1 – 580 EX II

It seems like a lot, but that is for two of us for 10 days. Somehow I get to juggle all of that myself using both bodies shooting the wedding events. Hmm. Maybe I will chicken out and just have Trav be my backup shooter. After all, one day (today) playing with his camera is not really enough to get me familiar with shooting fully manual on-the-go.

Also, this is also the first time in a while I’m not going with the 24mm TS. I sort of feel like I’m missing my security blankie. Uh oh…

Ummm, I also realized just now that in the last two months of frantic lens-choosing and technical preparation, I neglected to figure out what the heck I am going to wear to this wedding.

Crap! Gotta run and ransack the closet.
