Andrew,
Your comment challenged me to do some crude research. On my scales, I get
the following:
E-510 Camera Body, 21 ounces
Zuiko 14-54 Zoom Lens, 17 ounces
Takumar 200mm, f/4 lens, 21 ounces
If the camera mounting ring won't handle an additional 4 ounces in a lens
that is slightly longer than the Zuiko zoom, then how does it handle the
much longer FL Zuiko zooms?
An inquiring mind wants to know! :-)
