Bro,
Welcome to alphadslr.. no post in alphdslr is deleted so far. :D
.. unless those porn postings :sofunny:

Back to your question, I think 18-250 should be sufficient for most of the shots.. unless you want to go wider.. in this case, a 11-18mm (Sony) or 10-20mm (Sigma).

I think you might be referring to cjng... who's a resident shooter at Spring in the City, he's usually armed with the 18-250mm. :)


The 18-250 is usually sufficient for all sorts of shots during travel.

Bro blurblur...

18-250 is definitely good if you looking to travel light... If you don't mind a little more weight, then carry your CZ16-80 and get a beercan (beg / steal / borrow). You will get better picture quality... IMHO.
