How heavy are we talking about?
Did 12 hrs with a 85GM and it’s fine for me.
16-35, 35 1.4, normally. Do you wear it with just a single layer (tshirt)?

Just a cotton shirt.
It’s spent more time in my hand being used than on my shoulder.
I’m never carrying it on my shoulder more than 5mins at a time really, it’s either being used or i will put it down on the ground or table. If I’m going a long distance and not using it, it’s in the bag or case.

That explains it, then. If i'm using the strap it's normally because i'm carrying the camera on my shoulder all day. After a couple of hours, the Lite definitely gets uncomfortable. I normally have the PD Cuff on my wrist when i'm out and about too, which helps if my camera is out a lot.
I've shot a wedding using the normal sized Slide and found it far too bulky, so that probably makes sense for you.
The strap is mainly a security measure in case I drop it, not something to carry the camera around for long stretch of time.
Why not just use something like the cuff, then?
I use the Black Rapid RS1 Sports..... but also have the RS6 and Peak Designs Summit straps
The 24-70 f4 is a good lens but there is copy to copy variation...... at f8-f11 I would have thought the cost and weight saving over the GM would be enough to stick with the f4.No you don't use any straps, you might own them though......
On a more serious note, what are peoples thoughts on the 24-70 F4 against the 24-70 GM at typical landscape apertures ie F8-F11 ??

Just stuck my Nikon 85mm f/1.4 in the classifieds not that it's likely to sell here. Gonna get the 85MM G Master
Strange place classifieds. People want things cheaper I understand, and then not willing to buy purely because sellers will not drop to what they feel is fair and then buyers end up buying more expensive listings elsewhere anyway!
I think that time they limited classified access a while back depending on your posting ration pretty much killed it off.
You need to drop to really ridiculous money to sell anything on here, or drop to below the price that trade companies like mpb will offer, which is mad. I am not worried about it anyway. I am gonna buy the G Master regardless of the Nikon selling or not.
To be honest I would rather keep it but have to make an effort to sell it to keep the missus happy.
What's mbp?
lol na serious what is it? im still sitting on a 70-200 f2.8 mk2 canon lensIt's a clothes shop you should check it out. Much better than the local oxfam you seem to pick up your stuff up from at the moment.
You should do a big order then when it arrives do another unboxing video.
Afternoon all.
I have an A9 for sale in the 'Other brands' forum.
Normally I wouldn't advertise this here but I'm donating the money to charity and it's a particularly time sensitive event. So if you're interested please do take a look.

It's MPB not MBP.
It's in Brighton, I actually tried to look for it once, went to the location as suggested on Google maps but couldn't find it!

How about an A7x and the 35mm f2.8?
It's "only" f2.8 but it's also a small camera and lens package and probably cheaper than an Rx1 plus you have the option of changing lenses if and when you want and like me you can keep costs down by using cheap film era lenses for fun or for focal lengths you don't use enough to justify buying a modern lens.
An A7x and your decent compact with a zoom may be all you'll need.

Postcode has changed and they now have a frontage that I couldnt find before?Pretty sure they are still there - Sussex House.
According to website they are still there!
I'm more than happy to let you rock that, ahem, 'style'.You lot have no swagger like me
Which charity if you don't mind me asking?
I've not read a bad review of the 35mm f2.8. I thought everyone thought it was very good. There is the cheaper Samyang too.That’s what I was thinking too in some respects but the reviews of that lens are mixed to say the least. But i take the point about future options etc (see now why I’m tying myself in knots )))
