Re: Photo Equipment for a month long? trip to Italy
Nowadays when I travel I bring along either:
a) Sony 12-24 and 24-105 zooms or
b) Voigtlander 21/1.4, 40/1.2k, 180/4, and Loxia 85/2.4
with my a7rii.
Last time I went to Malta I just took the 24-105 and had a great time.
In Rome, especially, I would never carry a camera in a backback or any means where I could not wrap my arms tightly around it in crowded situations. (Which seems to be all the time in Rome.) Special care in train stations or the underground. If you sense a situation like a fight or an argument nearby be aware that it might be staged to distract you and make you an easier target.
