Thanks for telling us of your inventory. Now do you need help in choosing a car to take you there?


I am sure if he needed help with the car, he would have asked. Now, do you have any useful suggestions related to the actual post?

If I was in that quandary, I would make up my own mind...……. or not bother going. I see your occupation is listed as analyst. (?) Good at your job?


Have you ever asked anyone for their input?

Troll ...smoll. Who cares what you think. After 23 trips to this flower show and he is still in the dark. Get real.

You've been to this show 23 times, and still don't know what equipment works best?

The wife and I are going to the big flower show in Philadelphia and I can't decide which camera to take. The wife will be using my Canon SL2 with an EF-S 18-200 lens. I was thinking about taking my 5D IV with the 28-300L or my D7200 with Nikkor 28-300 attached or my M50 with the 28-300L attached. I used the 5D IV / 28-300L last year but, even though I got excellent photos, that camera lens combo is quite heavy. I'm leaning towards the D7200 because it's really good in lower light conditions and it's smaller and lighter and has higher resolution than the D500. I like the 28-300 because even on a crop body it's plenty wide for the flower show and the 300 end comes in quite handy. The Nikkor lens isn't as good as the Canon lens but it is good enough.

It's up to you. You have many choices. It's like asking which pair of shoes you should wear. You need to decide.

Sure. This guy goes to this show TWENTY THREE TIMES. He is still looking for advice on camera and lens selection. What does that tell you??

I think that it seems someone who has purchased all that expensive equipment would have their own idea as to what equipment to take to a flower show for the 24th time. Are you trying to pull someones leg?


Have you ever asked anyone’s advice just to get a second opinion?

I don't know you, so this comment is unfair of me. But, since I don't know you, your post seems more like you just want everyone to know what optical toys you own, rather than actually being interested in feedback. I believe any of the equipment you bloated about will do a fine job, if you do your part.


that was my thought exactly...I am going to the same show and have no problem deciding on my gear...

What?? You still haven't figured what you should use? Wow.
What position did you hold as an analyst?


You sound like a true compassionate person!

If you’re going to a big flower show. Stop and think! You need macro too get close and detailed. Take tripod or mono pod small reflector disk if your are allowed. Take multiple focus areas and photo stack your images. I should look a Macro 90mm @ F 2.8 , or somewhere around the focal length take a cloth to wipe your glass take spare cards and batteries. The place will be air conditioned too cool. So batteries will deplete quicker. Condition you hardware to your location temperature. Have fun and go none stop shooting. 👍🏻👍🏻

He's going to a flower show, not trying to create a coffee table book.

Yet you, with over 1,000 pointless comments, continue to provide uselessness to a most amazing degree.

"A wise person is always seeking better information. A fool simply criticizes the question." Which do you think you are?

(That question is rhetorical since the answer is obvious)

If anybody actually read the original post you will note that the OP did not ask for any advice or opinions. He just stated he was undecided which of his numerous 'toys' to bring.

Nevertheless, there are lessons to be learned from this thread.
1. READ the post.
2. Note the dangers of having too much gear. It can lead to confusion and indecision and looking at the OP's previous posts, it doesn't do much for your photography either.
