Sal, That is a great post.  You are an old Pro.  I am an old multi-decade serious amateur hobbyist.  Rome is perhaps the greatest walking city in the world, and Man did my wife and I walk it.  I ...

John, you are a better man than me.  I always operate under the mistaken impression that having more lenses makes me a better photographer :)

debo -- don't do this to yourself.  You must get the best lens in the world.  The mighty 16.  Do not deny yourself this pleasure -- no, I mean this necessity.  .

Peter -- Thanks. Great post.  No.  I have to have the 16 always.  The 10-24 is indispensable for travel.  The 16 is the best lens in the world.  it can't be left at home.  I need the 1.4 too many ...

Holy Cow John....  You walk around with an X70 and an X100?  You have that wonderful XP-2 and only one lens?  Wow.....  Hey, but that's why I asked.  Everyone is so different.  Man oh Man.....

No Way Joe.  That is an anti-mirrorless Fuji statement and is blasphemy.  I switched from Canon and L lenses because of what you just said.  I walked an average of ten miles a day for 20 days in ...

David ... great response.  I have to get this 23 prime.  Several replies note that lens.  I won't chime in on your 16-55.  I get in trouble when I start ranting about that lens, but I'm glad you ...

I have heard that so much.  I'm buying that lens.  Now you have given me GAS....

I laughed so hard when I read this....  My original inspiration.....  That was great.  Very funny.  Well done!

You are traveling to a great city abroad (Rome, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, Jerusalem, Bangkok, Istanbul, or maybe even a hilltop Tuscan village). You pack your carry-on with your Fuji gear and 5 or 6 ...

Depends of course. If I'm out all day on travel as a tourist and I have my bag and I'm walking around shooting, like I did every day for the past three weeks in Rome..... I don't know. I would say ...

Arvin, Dammit.... I'm not allowed to comment on this lens because this question gets asked at least once a week, and I always get in trouble. Last month I actually got called a troll for this....  ...

Moderator -- Please erase this thread.  I am on my work computer and somehow it posted half way through writing the title.  So I edited it and wrote a long fascinating post.  Then I posted it and ...

I hear you.  But I have had about 9 Wasabi and Watson batteries for well over 2 years now and they all still work.  Amazingly, the original Fuji battery that came with my XT-1 died a while back ...

I hear you Truman.  Just messing with you.  Those are all great lenses and I have them all but one.  If I were shooting with an X-Pro 2, I too would go prime.  It just has that look, and yes, the ...

OK, but you should have stopped using that giant and cumbersome Fuji battery charger ages ago (unless at home).  Who wants to carry that big thing? Instead, when you order Wasabi or Watson ...

Truman, why on Earth do you carry those 4 prime lenses in your bag? Are you prejudiced against the great Fuji zooms? Are you a zoom hater? I carry four lenses too whenever I am walking around on ...

Elie -- You have the 14... Sorry. I missed that from your post and that negates my wide angle lecture. Getting back late to the hotel. Yes, the whole 20 days in Rome I was getting back around 10 ...

Elie, These images are very nice and travel photography is a lot of fun. You are doing it right. That said, I want to recommend a couple of things that might make your travel photography a little ...
