No, it's not heavy. My desire for a tripod mount has more to do with the improved functionality when shooting with a tripod/monopod (when I eventually get one :-). I quite like the feature on the FA* 80-200mm f2.8 (Which is heavy & does need it) Cheers, Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
