In a rain forest a gorilla pod or some similar device might work.

The same combo I take on all my backpacking trips. Canon 5D, 17-40 L, grad. NDs, circular polarizer, remote release and a tripod.

And another vote for ditching the flash.

The 5D is not all that much heavier than the 450D - a matter of ounces and nearly the same size so I'd go with the 5D ...

450 ...
Dimensions: 128.8 x 97.5 x 61.9 mm
Weight (body only): Approx. 475g

5D ...
Dimensions: 152 x 113 x 75mm
Weight (body only): Approx. 810g

When you handle both there is a very clear difference in size and weight. Whether that is significant is subjective.
