Some lessons learned after days of walking around cities:

(Probably obvious stuff to those who have done it.)

1. Fewer lenses is better.

2. Skip the battery grip.

3. Tripod? Think again.

4. The lens you need for that perfect shot will be one you left back in your room. Just accept that and learn to adjust.

5. A 4/3 setup looks mighty sensible when your shoulders are aching from hauling the big gun around.

6. Wide and fast is essential for most historical sites, especially churches, abbeys, ruins, etc. I'd give anything for a 16-35 f2.8L or an EFS 17-55 f2.8 IS right about now.
