My advice is to take just one camera, say the Yashica and get to know it intimately wherever you go. Sure you may miss some of other kit, but if you take it all I think you may well loose more time thinking about what camrea to take what pic, instead of thinking about using what you have to capture what you want.

It looks like the weekend of the 15th of August I'm going to take Friday for myself and travel around with the camera & lots and lots of film. All by my lonesome.
But I don't want to go more than 8 hrs from Columbus. That could take me to Great Smokies, DC, Philly, Niagra, Michigan, Chicago, Nashville, St. Louis ... lots of places.
Outfit includes: KX for b&w, Super Program for color with
K30, A35/2, F50/1.7, A100/2.8
YashicaMat 124
Nakagoa 4x5 with Fujinon-W 135/5.6 and Comm. Komura 210/6.3.
Purpose is to shoot for fun. No poses planned. Just scapes of a large variety.
So ... where would you go and what would you shoot. Give me some ideas to work with.
TIA,
Collin
(For those looking @ 4x5 wood fields, the Nakagoa is nice. Though it has a fairly short bellows, the body folds pretty thin and it as a good rear tilt. Also focuses easily using front or rear knobs.)
