Today, I shifted over from the OM2s to the OM1n. Its pretty cold here in
Canada right now, and the 1n works better when you're outdoors for awhile.
So the Om2s, still my favorite, gets a little chance to hibernate. Today,
like almost every day now, I took only a 50/1.8 and 100/2.8 with me, and a
35RC loaded with B&W. If I thought I would need it, I'd also take a Vivitar
28/2 I have, which is the one 3rd party I have which is as good as the
Zuikos as far as I can see. But that is about it for me these days. I can
carry this in my coat pockets without even taking a camera bag. I've
basically laid aside using the zooms, as they are too big to carry, and too
slow. Even the Zuiko 135/2.8 is too heavy for my pocket, and takes a
different size filter.
What kind of photography?...Shooting nature (read snow today), scenics,
sunsets, etc., which is what I do mostly.
