One of my friends here took his 8x10 outfit (84 pounds) to Paris a 
couple of years ago for "street" photography.  He had an objection from 
a gendarme about taking photos of public places, but evidently those 
issues can be resolved.   He prints platinum/palladium contact prints, 
which are great.  I traded my Seal 16x20 dry mount press for two prints 
and got the better part of the exchange by far.
