Sounds like good reason for your husband to carry it for you.

Thanks, Anothony. I'm planning to use the 90mm as a portrait lens. If I were

What you realy need is a longer zoom (28-75mm) a wide zoom (18-125) or even
better a 14-45mm or 18-50mm and perhaps a fast portrait lens (the 50mm). I

have is the one you are familiar with (no new equipment) and one that
is tried and tested.
One thing you didn't list is a flash bracket. Very us
