Another vote for the OM1. For backpacking/travel I've carried an OM1
with 135/3.5, 28/3.5 since I bought them new in 1976. Before that, a
P*nt*x SP500 with a 135, 28 and 2x. Now I have a few more lens choices
and probably would take the 35-70 and 135. On occasion i might add a 50
macro but the diopter "filters" on the 135 work ok and are much
lighter/smaller. Also sometimes carry a 2x. Not having to worry about
batteries is a plus.
