Default What's in your camera bag?

Hi I'm Michael and I am a professional photographer. I don't talk "shop" much around here since this is a car forum but I love photography and thought I would introduce myself as such.

I was a fashion photographer for 5 years but these days shoot mostly portraiture, wildlife and events. I am looking to get into photojournalism as I tend to want to challenge myself with new things. Question on this in a minute... first.. my bag!




My question for those of you who are photogs is, given that I want to focus a bit more attention on photojournalism, what lens/s could I stand to lose/gain? Bare in mind that I maintain a biz where I need certain lens's in the bag.

For example, I want to hold onto my 28-300mm as it's a great lens for versatility and it's really durable (I use it all the time). I really love my 100mm as I shoot quite a bit of macro wildlife stuff. The 10-22mm I don't really need but it provides some fun and interesting shots for events, etc.

I really wouldn't mind picking up a EF 400mm f/2.8L IS USM but since I don't shoot sports (professionally) I really can't justify the kind of $$$ just for my kids soccer games. A second choice would be the Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L USM. This seems like it would be a great addition to my bag but IDK.

Ideas?
