On my trip out west last year I took my IIIf with 15mm Cosina Voigtländer (borrowed, subsequently bought one), 35mm Summaron & 50mm Elmar in addition to my M2 with 35 & 90mm Summicrons. I had both cameras with me wherever I went. Next time (coming up soon!) instead of the IIIf I'll probably take my newly-acquired SL2 with 50, 180 & 350 lenses and exercise my telephoto skills. - -Dave-
