Well, the 250-600/f5.6 is 12lbs just by itself, and of course there's a tripod needed as well. Plus I've got the 300/2.8. And, of course, whatever I need for other shooting. I can get everything except the tripod into the Pelican 1620. Perhaps if I make do with the monopod I'll settle for that. It's not exactly inconspicuous for street shooting, though.
