Minimum - an MX and a 50mm 1.7 lens. Like Mark Roberts posted earlier, this was my
minimum equipment for many years!
I've now extended it to the above, plus a 24mm lens, a tabletop tripod and an Olympus
stylus.
You're going on holiday to enjoy yourself. Don't burden yourself by lugging around
tons of equipment. Your family won't
thank you either if they have to wait around for endless lens changes, setting up of
tripods etc etc. Believe me!
