Brilliant Marc - that's just what I wanted to hear. Good decision then. I spoke to Mike this morning as well, and he's very happy with his too. It has a 3.5kg payload limit, and my OM-D plus Tak FS60-C with camera angle adjuster and flattener/reducer weighs in at 2.7kg. Perfect. With lenses - less than half that - around 1.1kg with grip.

Sorry to divert your thread Andrew - it wasn't the intention.
