I'm going on vacation and only want to carry one lens. I have a Nikon 85mm 1.8 and a Nikon 24-120 f4. My camera is a Nikon 750.
Most of my shots are "wife in front of a building, wife shopping, wife getting on the bus. I think you got the idea what I shoot. Any suggestions would be helpful.


I don't know if a new lens is an option, but if it is I would recommend the Nikon 28-300. The lens is acceptably sharp throughout the range and it has the benefit of being able to close focus in all focal lengths down to around 9". Can you imagine shooting a flower at 300 mm from 9" away? This lens not only takes the place of a wide angle and a telephoto, but stands in nicely for a macro lens!

24-120 f4, perfect all-purpose lens on FX camera.

A long zoom so I could shoot it from the bar;-)
