Originally posted by TheFunk I am planning on going to the Haleakala crater on Maui tomorow and would like to have any thoughts on how best to capture a nice sunrise pic. I have a K10 with an 18-250, a 50-135 2.8, and a pentex 50 1.4. Wich lens is the best to use and what shuld I know to best capture the moment at the top of the world in low light in the morning. I am relative novice but take direction fairly well. Thanks if you can help.
I guess the only question is actually to carry that fifty or not... You'll definitely need wide angle, so you need 18-250, and you can't really argue will you find something to use 50-135 on, since it's opticaly the best, and without any doubt better than 18-250... now, I guess there's no point making portraits with full out of focus background at the scene, since you can do this anywhere, so f/1,4 won't really be needed, and for 50mm, again, you have 50-135... If I'd have to pick one lens only, then 18-250 - soft shot is better than no shot, and I'd miss wide angle...
