Great kit, but what about the weight!

I wonder if the Getty photogs hitched a lift up the slopes on the piste grooming machines?

Jimbo, you need to get some exercise. :)
I'm wondering what Moira's wondering and thinking what josh_avm is.

Funny you mention physical training. Try hand holding (and trying to hold it “still”) a 400mm on a decent size DSLR in a bouncing speed boat. Total weight is about 11kg. After 5mins there are a lot of muscles burning! Or lugging 20kg back packs around for weeks at a time.
