Compared to my OM-4T with the 21/3.5, it is a monster. My only real complaint 
about going digital is that these cameras and lenses are ENORMOUS. Whereas 
I could mount one lens on my OM, and then two lenses in the front pockets of my 
khakis and go out for an afternoon shoot. No way I can stick one of these 
auto lenses in a front pocket.

But compared to my other auto lens, its not that big. Despite the larger filter 
size (OK, make that two  complaints - how about standardized filter sizes?), 
its 
roughly the same size as the 14-54, and isn't any heavier.
