Since it's vacation season, and lots of zuikophiles are making the
most agonizing decision of the year (which lenses do I take?), I'll
share my most recent vacation rig:
For a week in Philly including a wedding, sightseeing, and free time
to be creative, I carried my OM-4t, OM-1n, 21/3.5, 28/2.8, 50/1.8,
100/2.8, 200/5, fisheye adaptor, F280, a monopod, and my normal
compliment of film, filters, and other essentials. All fit neatly in
my Domke F2, with room left over for a book, GPS, pager, and assorted
doo dads I collected en route.
After getting to Philly, however, I decided I'd just as soon leave
the bag in the room, and go lighter. The first day I clipped my 4t to
the vest, stuck the 21 on my 4t, 50 and 100 in the pockets, and left.
The 21/50/100 combination proved to be such a winner that I never
touched the 200 or 28. 15 rolls of film later, I did reach for the
fisheye adaptor when I had an afternoon to spend on the Philadelphia
Exchange building (near our hotel), and I used the monopod for some
night shots, but these only came out for planned and scouted shots.
So my next trip may prove lighter still.
