Richard,

I spent two weeks in Mexico a few years back with an R7 and ISO 200 film and 
hardly ever took my 21-35mm Vario off the camera. I am not too interested in 
bokeh but all other aspects of the camera & lens combo met my needs very 
nicely. I still use it with a DMG and R9, but now it is roughly a 28-46mm Vario 
due to the cropping factor, not a bad range.

I have no experience with N or C cameras and lenses at all so I can't offer 
comparisons. Others can and will.

Good luck,

Bill
