The camera kit situation is pretty good. If anything, it'll be a
question of cutting stuff out. I think I'm going to try to cut it down
to 2 bodies and 4 lenses to get something that's pretty versatile yet
still light and portable.
Current thinking:
2 OM-1Ns
21/3.5
35/2
50/1.4
135/3.5
2x macro tele-converter
Other possibilities would be the 85/2 (love the lens but it's in need
of a CLA to fix a sticky aperture) and/or 200/4. I think with the 2x
converter I can get away with not taking the 200mm. I have some other
wides (24/2.8, 28/2.8) but I think the 21mm and 35mm should be fine.
The Tamron 90/2.5 macro is pretty big so I think that will stay home.
Where I'd be living there for 4-6 months I could probably take a bigger
kit but I think I'll keep things small as I may do some travelling in
Asia after that and I'd want to keep things pretty lightweight then.
