How much do they weigh on Earth?
How much do they weigh on the moon?

Mine weigh about 13 pounds on Earth.
I'll buy some new glass when I go to the moon.

Can we use the Canon weight specs, or shall we weigh the lenses ourselves ?:confused:

Forget weight. The mass of your lenses will remain the same wherever they are.

Individually, I don't notice them. It's when everything I own is in my backpack that I feel it.

Especially when you have to make that 5 mile uphill trek through waist deep snow to get to school and then turn right around and have to make the same uphill journey back home.

I wouldn't know. I rode a rickety ol' bus to and from school. It only broke down on us a couple times each year.
