PESO:
My SL 90-280 came today so, of course, I found a cat to photograph:

Scout thinks we installed the wind station just for him.
You didn't? Really? Perhaps not consciously, but cats have powers . . .
Everything looks good! It's heavy but not unmanageable. It will fit in my
photo bag.
I imagine it's a spectacular lens . . . but a bit of a monster. Much larger and twice the weight of the PLeica 100-400.
If you can wield it for more than a few minutes, you're a better man than I. ;-)
In the field, I often carry two E-M5 IIs one with 100-400 and the other with 12-60 or 12-100. Even the heavier of those
two combos weighs less than an SL with 90-280.
Changing lenses in the field should be - uh - interesting. But then, I believe you are more often than I in
circumstances with reasonably solid, level surfaces available.
I hope you have a ball with it and get incredible images!
