Hi David I took the Pentax A24mm, the Pentax A50mm Macro and the Pentax M100mm with me on my last work travel to Arosa and the mountains with the Pentax ME Super and the AF280T flash. That combination worked very well for people and landscape shots and some close-up butterfly and flower photos.
If I could only take two lenses with me it would be a 35mm and the 90mm Tamron macro. This is for film bodies, translate it for digital use ;-) greetings from a lurker to all of the PDML members.

I'm only up there for the day (carry on bag only) and a couple of hours work to do. So when I'm done my times pretty much my own until the flight back. That being the case I thought I "might" take a light kit (ie D + 1 lens) up with me just in case there's something worth taking pictures of (just think marine infrastructure, read earth, 36 degrees C & no golden hour). The question is if I do decide to, which lens to take? - FA 50mm f1.4 - FA 31mm f1.8 - FA 77mm f1.8 - FA 100mm f2.8 - FA 28-105mm f4-5.6 - DA 16-45 f4.0 Of those, which would be your preferred choice? Or should I just stick with the work supplied compact (Canon Digital IXUS 50) that I'm taking anyway? To make this more interesting, what do you take when travelling light and you're not sure what photo opportunities may arise?
