Heh.  I suppose I was trolling for that.  Hassy's are relatively light,
it's true (but nowhere near as light and self-contained as my favorite
flavor of 2 1/4 beast, the Rollei TLR); but most Hasselblad users on
location feel obliged to drag around a heavy tripod, and an assortment of
lenses and backs.

No offense intended.  I'm sure there are many balletic Hasselblad
partisans out there.
