When I go on vacation, and especially if I am driving, I take the Fuji XT-2, and often also a Leica M2 and some film. But on business trips like this one, I use a Fuji XE-2 (smaller and lighter than the XT), with 4 lenses. This all fits in a small Gitzo bag, my newfound favorite for travelling light. As backup, and for use during meetings, I also have the Ricoh GR in my pocket (same camera I use for cycling). Usually I start editing the photos during the trip, late at night in the hotel, or while waiting for my flight in the airport lounge. This is why I often start posting PADs during the trip. I do not use LR mobile, I always have my MacBook Air with me on those trips, so I just use regular LR. During this trip, which lasted from Tuesday evening to Friday afternoon, I took around 400 pictures; 310 or so survived the initial cull which I did on the road. Since I shoot RAW, I have to do something to each image, so despite the relatively modest number (compared to someone like Tina), it does take me some time to finish. This was especially the case this week because I was busy at work, and I had another business trip, to Brussels.
