First timer, really need an advice please

<p>Dear kind people,</p>

<p>Thank you again for your replies. I've bought everything now. With 9 days to go, I'm set with my cameras. It will be delivered to me either by tomorrow, or Monday at the latest. I'll be looking forward to practice until before I left.<br>

For those who are curious, my final decision is:<br>

FUji XT-1<br>

18-135mm IOS<br>

Tokina 12-24mm with adaptor (MF)<br>

2 extra batteries<br>

RX 100 mark 1 or FUji x100 as backup (haven't decide for either one. Might lean towards the mark 1, but X100's lens is bright, but heavier).<br>

I will try to go as early as possible for Vatican museum, thank you for the tips! I will do that coin toss later Craig, to make sure I'll come back again to Rome.. hahaha<br>

Thank you for this wonderful forum. I hope to share my humble pictures one day :)<br>

Regards,</p>

<p>Tora</p>

<p>Another vote goes with Colin and Dieter.<br>

In Italy (Rome and Florence) and Spain (Barcelona) this year, I used only a 24-105 and 14/2.8. I stuck with the shots my gear would take and I I was pretty pleased with the photos I took, although the time away was not primarily a photographic holiday.<br>

The only other lens I would have taken was a 70-200/4.<br>

Enjoy your trip.</p>
