I could by the camera and lens but would have to cancel the trip. My kit for the trip will be a 4x5 field camera with 210mm lens, my new M6 HM (which arrives next Saturday), M4-P, 35mm Summaron, 50mm Summilux and 90mm Elmarit -M. The trip involves 2 1/2 months of travel around Canada, 3 months based in England with shorter side trips around Europe, two weeks in the Mediterranean, two weeks in Thailand and then returning to Kathmandu on December 31. The majority of time will be spent cruising for snaps with some time taken out so that I can catch up with the rest of the world on scanning and digital darkroom stuff - I have no intention of ever giving up on my b&w darkroom though. Cheers Ian Stanley Kathmandu, Nepal
