I just got a GX7, and I'm very pleased. Lightweight, small lenses, good 
files, what more can you ask?

Subject: [OM] What would you buy?

This summer I will be going on a 2 1/2 week tour of Italy which will be
opportunity to mark that off my bucket list.  We will be on a Rick Steves
tour for most of the trip and will be limited to a day pack and one airplane
carry on piece of luggage.  You can probably see where I'm going with  this.
No, I won't be packing either my OM or e-thingy kits. For that  matter the
medium and large format gear will also be staying home.  I  really hate not
having my film gear with me, however . . .

So, if you were to buy a small digital camera in today's market what might
it me?

Basic requirements would be interchangeable lenses (although I would
probably carry only one), smaller than an e-5, video capable and under 
$2,000.
I'm thinking one of the Olympus, Sony or other similar offerings.  I like 
an
optical view finder rather than composing on the screen on the back of the
camera however don't know that would be a deal breaker.

So what camera body/system and if only one lens, what might that be.   I'm
thinking a 35mm equiv. zoom range of 28-135 would be adequate.
