It's always hard to know which lens to bring on a trip, so I wanted to do a breakdown of what I brought. Of course this is down to your style of work.

Nikon Z8 | 70-200mm | 24-70mm | 14-30MM | 35mm 1.8 | 50MM 1.2

I'd for sure say if you want to shoot at night bring a prime or two. While the lights are bright from the city a F/1.8 is super useful! even better if you have a 1.4 or 1.2! I'd say the 50mm was more useful over the 35mm.

I really love my 70-200mm in Hong Kong, it really helped capture the details and compress the landscapes between the city/ nature. Especially at the Buddha, I really love that photo!

My least used lens was the 14-30mm, however it really saved me when I wanted to capture a wide angle scale shot. Also lookup photos it was perfect for! I'd honestly have a day and a night setup so you don't have to carry loads of gear. No point hiking around with a tripod all day!

I hope this helps, any questions let me know!
