The results: Pentax K5 bag (with 5 lenses): 2.6 kg Leica M8 bag (with 6 lenses): 4.7 kg Fuji X100 bag: 1.2 kg All bags include one or two spare batteries. The Leica bag also includes a small Blurb book in the back pocket--my 7x7 softcover yearbook which I use to explain to people why I am taking pictures. The Pentax outfit is relatively light for an SLR.
