i carry a second body only when I want to shoot color and b&w at the same time
... or used two diff. lenses...

2d body is a bessa r (i have cv 35/1.7, 75/2.5 and the 15) ... bessa r also
serves as a back up when i travel.
when on the road i take two cameras along but usually walk about with the m6
(primary body) with a 35/2 (also have 50/2 and adaptors for the cv lenses).  but
when it comes to walking about i like to travel light: m6 and 35/2.
