Thanks. This will be my 30th trip and 15th in the past 3 years. I don't know if I can enjoy potc as much as my fiance these days. Trying to get a picture of Capt. Jack will I hope bring back the enjoyment of some of the rides I skip on solo trips, but DFi feels are important to ride each trip. I'm not planning on taking all my lenses. I'm leaving both of my fiance's manual focus lenses at home. I don't know if I'll carry my 18-55 kit lens around. It will most likely make the trip down to take some pictures of the resort buildings. I may also use it when I go for my site visit for the extra range to get photos of the entire room.

I really like my lowepro fastpack 250. It holds my camera w/ lens attached. 4-5 other lenes. currently I have 3 lenses, a flash, and lens hood in the pockets. I use the top to hold my jacket, camera rain sleeve, and laptop cables when I need to bring along my laptop.

Thanks, I'll just continue to shot in jpg
Until I can get a 50mm 1.4 af the 2.8 at the 28mm is the best I have for dark rides. 28-200 will be used mainly for animals, parades (the spot I use is pretty far from the parade). I don't shoot much outside of Disney. I've spent an hour photographing one area of flowers before. While they may not "look much different" they feel a lot different and are special to me. If I had the lenses now and knew them. I'd most likely only take the 28-105 and the 28-200 but I don't know them. I have the space in my bag. If I don't take them there will just be empty places in my bag. The bag is very light to me and I have no problem carrying them around for the chance at one shot. We have to carry a backpack because of other things we bring for the day. Regardless of camera and lenses.

I'm taking a Pentax k100d Super on my trip to Disney in 2 weeks. I'm thinking of experimenting with using RAW and editing them later. I only have and own Picasa for photo editing. In the past it's all I've needed.
I'm also not sure how the quality of the photo will differ from shooting in raw vs jpg
Sorry. I just got my dslr recently and have never taken it to Disney before. I've always had my trusty Kodak p&s. Which will be staying home since it's broken.
I'm also taking along 3 overlaping lenses, but 2 of them I will have only had for a few days when they arrive so I'm worried that they won't be as smooth with AF as I'd like or that my fiance won't like them. He thinks the 28-80 is perfect.
We plan to take:
Sigma 28-80 Macro
Sigma 28-105 f 2.8
Sigma 28-200
Depending on how it goes we'll most likely cut down to just the 28-105 because the faster f stop is most important to me.
Sorry for the long post. I'm just worried about trying a new shooting option and enjoying my new camera in my favorite vacation spot.
Thank you all so much!
