Super shot!

Modest list!?  Pah!  I went to Sydney three years ago with just an OM-1
and Zuiko 50mm f/1.8.  It was all I owned at the time.  If I had your
choice now, I'd take the 21mm, 28mm and 35-70mm, but then I don't really
like telephoto lenses, and there are many superb wide-angle shots to be
had in Sydney.

I may be going back there in November, if I'm lucky.  One of the places
I'll definitely return to is the Sydney Tower, where I took my favourite
ever photo:

 Dear All,

 I plan to visit Sydney soon, for a week or so, to do some sightseeing.
 I lived there for 13+ years but I haven't been back for a long time. I
 don't want to take a big bag of stuff but I also don't want to leave
 behind anything I might need - the usual dilemma!

 My modest list of Oly and other relevant photo gear is set out below,
 with a * against the things I'm thinking of taking with me but I would
 welcome other people's opinions.

 OM-2S camera *
 OM-2n camera
 Zuiko 21/3.5 lens *
 Zuiko 28/2.8 lens *
 Zuiko 50/1.4 SC lens
 Zuiko 50/3.5 macro MC lens *
 Zuiko 100/2.8 SC lens *
 Zuiko 35-70/4 zoom lens
 Vivitar 70-210 (OM mount) zoom lens
 Winder 2
 T32 flash + TTL cord
 Minox 35GT camera *

 Any comments greatly appreciated.

 Regards,

 =====
