Just around town or visiting a new place, most of us take with some camera! Previosuly, I'd have the 24-105 L IS on my 5D Mark ll and a 70-200 in a bag over my shoulder.
Now it's all changed. One of the advantages of mirrorless cameras is the shrinkage in size and weight.
With the Sony A7R and 36 MP, I manage with one lens 99% of the time. The 55mm f1.8 Zeiss is stellar and the extra resolution provides detail that my 24-105mm Canon glass would pull in for me. To get the wide angle shot, I stitch or go back until it enters the frame.
but then my pockets are plain empty! So I realize that I should slip in my Ricoh GR at 28mm (equivalent "35mm" focal length) and then I can get a complete view on its own and if I wish it would be the reference image for stitching Sony A7R overlapped images. With the 21mm add on convertor lens it still goes in my pocket, albeit making me look either clumsy or pleased to see everyone.
So what do you carry with you around town? Micro four thirds perhaps? A fixed lens or a zoom?
