I can carry two of them (loaded with color and B&W), plus spare film and batteries, without overstuffing my pants pockets. :) My comparison is between the two kits I've carried a lot: Nikon FE2, 20/3.5, 50/1.8, 70-300/4-5.6D, small flash, hoods in a Domke F5X hip/shoulder bag and the M4-P with 50/2, 28/2.8, 90/2, Sekonic L328, hoods, same small flash, same Domke bag. They both filled the bag to about the same degree and both weighed in at about 7.5 lbs total. Godfrey On Thu, 16 Sep 1999, Jim Laurel wrote: > Weight is only part of the equation.
