Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho'
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

From Tennyson's epic poem "Ulysses".

Some actual measurements:

My K-5, without lens or strap, weighs 0.8 kg = 1.76 lb.

My 17-70 lens weighs 0.51 kg = 1.12 lb.

So, my usual walking-around setup is 1.3 kg = 2.86 lb.

Until two or three years ago, my walking-around bag had the K-5, 17-70, 50-200, 
and 10-17 fisheye. That’s too much now.

Gravity must be getting stronger…

I never thought I’d say it, but at 74, I’m worn out. I don’t know how much
longer I can keep carrying big glass and a full frame camera on a walk
through the woods. Yes, my k-3 is lighter, but it’s still a lot of camera
with a lens that’s long enough to shoot wildlife.

Here’s the camera I want:
