when we were there, the street lights are turned off and just candle light
illuminates (or not) the streets.  For the first time in years I did not
take any M kit with me, 'just' S(007) and four lenses (24, 45,70 and 120,
equivalent to 19, 35, 56 and 96) - still weighs ~9kg so that is the
downside.  Lenses are about two stops slower than my M lenses (although
still faster than zoom lenses), however it is far better at high ISO than
my M(240) and some of these shots are at 12,800.

I agree.  Such nice, concise compositions.
