Hi, Hap!
BD>MT>     35mm SLRs are the least efficient in terms of weight per
BD>MT> unit film area.
HN> But we don't have to slit our own film .
 Or worry about other "spies" doing the same to our throats? 
BD> Have you ever handled an RB67 or similar medium format?
HN> Heh, try hauling an 8X10 field camera up and down a mountain..
 Honestly can't recall having climbed any mountains with one but
 I've carried the darn things just about everywhere else!  
HN> ..a dozen film holders, several lenses, tripod, ect. ect...I do
HN> it with 4X5 and that's the only reason I'll never go 8X10! 
 Once you develop the necessary muscle tone it won't be so hard!
BD> Besides, I sold the only Minox I ever had many years ago, for the
BD> magnificent sum of $5..  Yeah, I know, wish I had that to do over
BD> again, too!  O:-)
HN> Hmmm, wanna sell any of your other stuff?  
 I think there's one more 8x10 view in storage, with two or three
 holders and a 15" lens..  What do you offer???  hehhehheh
... Ghouls date any old girl they can dig up.
