Fair point - I'm a student and have already spent quite a bit of money on the trip, so won't be buying anything.
@h2o I'm torn between doing the sensible thing - taking the 35 - and just taking the 28 because I haven't used it a lot.
Mostly I'd like to bring one lens so I won't have to constantly worry about changing lenses.

A: none of the above. Get a zoom. What you loose in speed, you gain in versatility (and high ISO capabilities). My pick would be the old 28-105mm 3.5-4.5. A great lens even on the D750.
Yup. Even if i'm traveling I'll take a zoom and a prime. I use the Canon equivalent, the old Canon 28-105mm 3.5-4.5, which I'll use when I'm out specifically for photography. I'll stick the 40mm f2.8 (tiny) pancake on when I want something discreet or I'm out for the night
From the digital photography thread:
I have a question - I'm going to Singapore and Malaysia for a study trip in a couple of weeks.
I've promised to take pictures for our report.
I have Nikon D700 and I'd prefer to just bring one lens - but which one to take?
I have a 28mm f2.0 AIS, a 35mm f2.8 AI and a Carl Zeiss 50mm f1.4.
Any input is appreciated.
I expect it to be kind of general reportage - documenting the companies we visit and other activities.
I've used the 35mm and 50mm the most.
