Hmm.. I don't know. Sometimes I walk around with a 17-55, someitmes I walk around with a 24 1.4, sometimes with a 11-16...

Depends on what I expect to see. There's no perfect lens, nor a perfect walk around lens. You anticipate your conditions, see how many lenses you can carry (even if it's just the 1 attached), and go from there.

Honestly, I carry my iPhone the most... that's the truly most carried 'walk around lens'

You are right, should be the other way.

My mistake , typing too fast and thinking too slow...

Low shutter speed, tripod is the only way ...  ( monopod can help, say up to 1/4 sec )

Many VR lens can offer great result up to 1/4 sec too, (ie 16-35) only if you are taking building etc pic.

Or you can wait until ISO6400/12800 is a common feature to all camera...

    It is reasonable common now, but usable? not really, do we need it as general public? no, I rather more and more powerful and accurated flashes to come. (in compact size too)

Time to take the tripod out. But my tripod is heavy without quick release.

I agree, 1 sec. handheld is almost impossible unless you have an abnormal ultra steady pair of hand...
