My Rolleiflex 2.8 f weights just UNDER 3 pounds. That's a camera I never could carry with me every day and I was in shape in the 80's and late 70's. My old D40x weighs under 2 pounds with 55-200 lens on it and is half the size of the D700. I started using it and the D200 again after 11 months of exclusively shooting full frame D700. It can be a relief. But it can also be difficult. In the past month I've done a lot of crunching of images I've taken the last ten years. And my previous before this work is certainly viable. Part of the reason I've got my D40x out again. I brought it with me to the Halloween parade. But it didn't get any use. The 80 1.8 was too perfect. -- Mark R. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/
