For the record, I didn't intend to call you Sasquatch. I was trying to imply that it's all relative. So I think we are, more or less, in agreement. <JCO>HOWEVER</JCO>, the EOS-1d mII N with (non-IS) 70-200/2.8 weighs roughly 5.6lbs (2.54kg). Just to confirm Adam's statement, my P645 with A200/4 weighs 4lbs 11oz (2.12kg). So yeah, your camera is freaking heavy. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- 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.
