With all due respect, not too many of us will EVER use 300 rolls in a week.
More like 10% of that number.....at most.

But you are correct.... An M8 + spare batteries is a LOT lighter than M6 +
film,,,, I think even for 300 rolls vs 10 batteries... 

Where in the Sierras?

I'm leaving Saturday to hike up 11,000 feet in the Sierra Nevada to 
camp for a week and am carrying 2 M8's and 10 batteries.  It's not a 
problem.  It's a lot lighter than 300 rolls of film!!
