You must put Arnold Schwartzenegger to shame ;) I was in Scotland a number of years ago, cycling through the country (btw -- if any of you are thinking of taking the A696 from Newcastle to Edinburg on a bicycle, I would advise you to reconsider) when my camera was an F3. It more or less always stayed in the bag, because it was just too damn big and awkward to drag out and use.
