You, as well as some others are all suggesting a longer lens. Currently I
don't own anything longer than the 135 so that would be why it's absent. I
do own a Sigma 2x converter but I haven't really tried it out much. It seems
to be having some problems with my 135 so perhaps I'll use the trip as an
excuse to get a 200/4.
