I'm leaving next sunday for a 4 weeks trip to India. My previous experiences taught me that travelling with a *light* equipment can be essential... But, being as zuikoholic as most on this list (well, not yet on the scale(s) of... well, you know ;-)), I have a difficult time trying to select from the following:

OM-4Ti
OM-40

24/2.8
35/2
35-70/3.5-4.5
50/1.8
100/2.8
75-150/4
180/2.8
Komura 2x converter

Domke F-2
Domke F-3X

Currently, I favor this set up (I intend to shoot both people and landscapes):

Domke F-3X

OM-4Ti

24/2.8
35-70/3.5-4.5
100/2.8
180/2.8
Komura 2x converter

Close seconds are:
50/1.8 for low light situations (but I can use Provia 100 at 400)
75-150/4 (but my heart bleeds not bringing the 180/2.8, although my shoulders rejoice...)
OM-40

Of course, if I take the Domke F-2, I can take (almost) everything, but I think this would be too heavy when walking all day long.

Any advice?

Bernard
