I have a trip to Vancouver coming up and the highlight is my mom's 80th 
birthday.

I have the delicious task of selecting a kit for the trip.  So, the 
purpose is a large Chinese dinner banquet, and general shooting.

Some thoughts:

- Xpan II with 45mm lens.  One lens, wide for the banquet, normal for 
portraits, one camera.
- Hasselblad 40mm and 100mm.  Wide and portrait, heavy metal, although 
slow (f4) for inside.  No flash planned.
- Leica M9 with 50 and 24mm.  The digital solution.
- Leica R9 with 15mm and 80mm

Which kit would you choose?

Vick
