Quite lovely.

I been thinkin' on the one camera/lens approach. I'm thinkin' it's not for me. I'm pretty sure I would end up being distracted enough by the inability to capture what I see that I wouldn't 'see' it.

I think I could go two cameras and three lenses, and remain light and simple. Oly E-PM2, with the Oly 14-42 pancake lens and auto opening lens cap, is quite a bit less wide and tall than the X100s, 2 mm deeper and lighter. Panny ZS40, for stuff out of the 14-42 focal range. Panny 20/1.7 pancake for low light.

Hmmm... Maybe Oly 45/1.8, too. Well, it is tiny and light, and WAY faster than the 14-42 at the long end. :-) And off I go, toward a full kit.

Panny kit of GM5, 12-32 and 45-150? ZS40 as back-up and looooong tele adjunct?

Be with you in just a minute, gotta grab my usual kit!

(New bag coming tomorrow! Sure to be the last one. [Sound of Moosie falling on the floor.] At least waterproof without needing a separate cover. Should be good for Scotland. :-D )
