Got frustrated today while doing some repairs on my van, and decided to switch gears from a road trip to something more tropical... a quick search revealed a cheap flight to Belize. So now we will spend the next two days deciding what to take, as we plan to backpack/hostel it. I'm thinking of taking only the E-M5+12-40, E-PM2+12-32, and a Stylus Tough waterproof for snorkelling. If we have to pare down further, I might leave the E-M5 behind, or go with the E-M5 + 12-32 only, and leave the E-PM2 behind. Might also toss in the 7.5 and 40-150R since they are so small.

Alternatively, I could just buy the 14-150II and have an all in one travel lens, but I only have 2 days to do so.

Thoughts?

If you're backpacking, I'd just take one body, the 12-40, and use the Stylus as a backup.
