I have no difficulty calling it the "monster" since the Canon backpack 
with 5D, 3 lenses, flash and bracket, chargers, batteries, cables, light 
meter, manuals, etc, etc weighs 17 pounds.  21 if you add the 80-200 and 
its case.  The A1 is a whole lot less but still a bit bulky at times.  I 
really do need a pocket camera.  I haven't had one since I stopped using 
the Stylus Epic.  Even that's a bit large for a pocket camera of today.
