How big is the P-2000? I'm leaving for Spain next Sunday, for two months of backpacking, mostly in Spain, but with an escape to Poland and the Czech Republic.
I'm taking: ist D K24/3.5 FA35/2 FA50/1.7 or A50/1.4 FA16-45/4 A35-70/4 M100/2.8 I do have a base in Madrid, and for the multiple backpacking trips from there I'll probably just take the FA35 and both zooms. Plus the Compactdrive PD7X with an 80GB drive, and the Powerbook with about 15-20GB free. And 3GB worth of cards, 2BG and 1GB, and three sets of rechargable AAs. And, just in case I run into a strong electromagnetic pulse, the M6 with Summicron 50 might find its way into the bag too. j On 5/23/05, Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My trip to the UK/Isle of Man is nearly upon me: I leave tomorrow. > Time to pack the equipment ... this is the gear I'm taking along: > > *ist DS body > A24/2.8 > A50/1.4 > FA28-105/3.2-4.5 > DA14/2.8 > F100-300/4.5-5.6 (this might yet be substituted with the FA135/2.8 > and 2x-S teleconverter) > Cable Switch CS 205 > Remote F > bubble level > Magnifier FB > SD cards - 5 Gbytes > Lithium AA batteries - 5 sets > Epson P-2000 standalone storage unit plus charger > > That all fits in a reasonably small, lightweight bag.
