Amita, my dear,
I have to ask - why are you taking the TCs?
With your lenses you have everything covered up to 90. Do you see yourself using a focal length beyond that? If so, are you just trying to placate having the reach with these light 'lenses'?
Personally, I have a TC somewhere, but I never use it.
In an urban environment I would tend towards the wide angle. I usually do not carry beyond a 77 or 85.
This is something you have to answer yourself, but if your style shooting includes the 90 I would not leave it behind - you will regret it.
How about taking it, and just think about what you take out shooting every day? You can just leave the lens in the hotel.
The 90 is your favorite lens for a reason. Be true to your style.
Just my slant,

Everyone, I'm trying to finalize my kit for London and I've hit a snag. Here's the kit I'm planning to take to London:
*istD Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Tam 1.4x and 2x TCs Sigma 15mm fisheye
I'm trying to figure out if I should take my Tam 90mm macro with me. I put it in the bag and it makes it significanly heavier, and I'll have to lug it around everywhere for a week. But I'm afraid that I'll regret it if I leave it at home, since it's one of my most-used lenses. Nate says I should just bring it, but he carries 5 lenses with him everywhere.
So, would you leave one of your favorite lenses at home if it made your kit significantly lighter? I can kind of cover the macro with all the other stuff I'm bringing, but the Tam 90 is such a great lens...
Thanks,
Amita
