     So do I.  I like the overall flexibility of the kit you are referring to.

     My field kit consists of an E-500 or E-510 with a wide to near telephoto 
lens mounted, such as 28-80mm, a Vivitar/Tokina 75-250, Vivitar macfro-focusing 
teleconverter, Vivitar extension tube set, and a small filter wallet with 81A, 
81B, 82A, 82B, LP, ND2, and +1 closeup filters plus a couple of adapter rings.  
Also have an extra battery and a PR-1 light meter.

     I would like to add a wide-angle zoom such as the Samyang 18-28/4.0-4.5.
