Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

If I want more reach I take my 55-300mm as well. The two lenses cover just about everything.
The Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 is another option. It's a really great lens with a special rendering that somehow brings out a subtle magic in many images.

I use other lens but invariably return to it as the versatility and sharpness are excellent

You haven't mentioned the 18-135mm, a very versatile and pretty good lens, with the added bonus of WR.
Agreed! +1

The Sigma 17 - 70 was my " walkabout " lens a few years ago, versatile, sharp and not to obtrusive.

16-85mm
Sigma
17-70mm
So many choices!
Is the 16-85mm the one to look at or should I drop down to the 16-50mm or ditch early SDM all together and get the 16-45mm?!
The 20-40mm looks very nice but not really keeping the pennies down!
