Nova 3 when travelling "light"? I almost always travel with a Nova 1.
I was recently on holiday with A24/2.8, M35/2, M85/2 plus ME Super
with MEII winder without "layers" of equipment. I can also carry a
Cokin P holder with 49 and 52 rings and an orange and a linear
polariser. (Plus the obligatory spare set of batteries, an incident
meter and a hotshoe spirit level.) It gets a bit fiddly when you try
to use the filters, but aren't they always?
I suppose it's because I usually go without flash. As soon as I try
to fit in the Vivitar 283 as well, it's a whole different story.
