This time, I only took an M2 and three lenses (35-50-90). This most recent trip was disturbed by health problems, but all things considered ... well, I guess I have drawn conclusions. I prefer the Leicas, but wouldn't complain about an M7 coming my way. I got by ok with the 90mm Summicron (old heavy one), but one thing I think I will probably do is to pick up an Elmarit-M (90mm) instead. It's the weight that kind of gets to me. I like a 90 but find I usually opt to leave it behind because it is just too heavy. Thanks for looking and any comments you might have. I'm not finished, but unless you say some shots are really lousy I won't be taking any away, just adding a portrait or two.
