Why I'm Ditching My Lens Collection for This One Zoom on Every Hike
I used to be that guy hauling a full lens kit up every trail. Three primes, a mid-range zoom, a wide angle “just in case” - my shoulders paid the price and honestly, my keeper rate didn’t improve. The gear-head logic sounds bulletproof until you’re 600 meters up a wet Scottish mountain and your back is screaming. That’s exactly the situation Nigel Danson puts himself in, and what he demonstrates in his one-lens hiking tutorial is something I’ve been preaching in a different context for years: constraints force better decisions.
