Here is a worthwhile article for Leica M shooters who want to travel light and fast when photographing while traveling:

What are your thoughts on the two lens Leica M travel kit? Would yours be a 35 and 90, or something different like perhaps a 28 and 50?
I ran across that article/website some time ago and was very helpful.
As I travel every other week for my work and carry my camera with me, luggage space is a premium and keeping it light imperative.
While shooting with a DSLR a few years ago I thought I needed the full focal range to cover any and all opportunities. The size and weight kept me from carrying it.
Now that I've gotten over the idea I need the entire focal range I am quite happy with just my Leica M-E and Leica Summilux 35mm.
I do have a 50 Lux and the latest version 90 Elmarit but I'd like to try a 75 Lux and pair down my system to a 35/75 combo and be done.
I'd use the 75 Lux mostly at home for nightclub photography as we have a couple great music venues in town where I live. I'd like to have the extra couple stops and of course the 75 Lux signature rendering.
