Going Away......What lenses should i take

[jamesward93]

I am going away snowboarding soon and obviously want to take my kit with me. I am undecided as to what kit i should take though. I have a canon 30D with grip and will take my Sigma 10-20mm, but i cant decided whether to take the 70-200 2.8 IS with x1.4 TC or my 70-300 4-5.6 IS. My head tells me to take the L series but i am thinking of weight for snowboarding and then of course insurance value.

Any suggestions?

take the L glass you'll only regret it later if you don't!

dunno which one is L glass (is it for Learners ?), but the 2.8 is the thing to take...

there should be plenty of light reflecting off the snow. i,d go for the range of the 70-300.

70-300, yes it's a slight trade off in image quality but it's a lot lighter and smaller than the L and when you're carrying it around in your pack whilst snowboarding I think that will make the difference.
