It's heavy enough to make the sensor in the passenger seat go off. So like 30lbs? I guess? maybe more who knows. lol

My film camera bag, don't even get me started. :[]

My normal carry bag an F2, weighs in about 22lbs.

My light carry bag, is an F5xb which weighs in about 7-8 lbs.

All my gear(minus light stands, etc..) in a gorilla pack, weighs in well over 30lbs (not really sure exactly, never weighed it, and honestly very rarely do I ever carry everything anyways)

I always knew my Vertex 200 backpack was heavy, but I've just put it on the scales. With my 055PROB and M10 attached its 34 lbs, but the tripod and head accounts for 6 lbs of that.

Thats with two cameras, four lenses and all the associated paraphenalia.

My thinktank international is around 50lbs. I pray every time I go to the airport that they won't weigh it.

I struggle with mine at 34 lbs, how on earth do you manage 100 lbs?

Its not the carrying, because the Vertex 200 is very comfortable on my back, its the getting it on and off thats awkward.

I just weighed my f-stop Guru at 20lbs.

I thought it was a lot and then I found this thread.
