I am with Jayanand on the need to travel light when visiting cities especially. Most of the things you will want to photograph do not require 200 mm lenses. I have recently started using my XE2 rather than the XT2 as my travel camera because it is smaller, lighter and I like the form factor better.
Cheers,
Nathan
