This week I am going out to take pictures for the company I work for, the photos will include the lake district scenery and mini buses. Which lens should I take, I have the kit 18-55mm and a 55-200mm.

I also have a circular polarising filter, Im guessing this is a must?

Never done anything like this before so not really sure.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply, thats what I was thinking. Hopefully I will have enough room to bring both, as my camera bag only holds my camera.

I'm sure even in the fullest minibus there is room to slide an extra lens in!

Vehicles rarely look good directly side or end on so look at your angles, think about your backgrounds (no telegraph poles poking out or anything) and keep an eye on your skies so they don't blow out. If you've not got ND grads consider HDRing them to keep detail in both sky and foreground but be careful not to go mad with the sliders!
 
I think I'm right in saying that the front element on the 18-55 rotates with focus. Just something to bear in mind when using your cpl.
 
Thanks for the comments, I haven't tried it with my 18-55 yet so ill have to keep that in mind and set it after focus.

I might have a go at an hdr, though the only time I've done one was to play about with it. Ill give it a try.
