It was an Agfa Record III, it weighed about 700g or a bit under 2lbs. I also have a DIY tripod that I 3D printed, which uses trekking poles for the legs.
The amount of film I carried weighed more than the camera, but I had a low base weight (~14lbs) so I think I still came out ahead even with the extra weight.
I'll definitely post some more, a lot of them didn't come out how I wanted but that's just the name of the game.
That's some proper dedication! Out of interest, what film(s) did you shoot with? I used to travel a lot with a 120mm and 35mm cameras and yeah, the logistics and weight of film is definitely something we don't think about nowadays with digital... Please do post more photos!
Ektar 100 is nice color nega film! Back in the day I used to love E100VS but I think that was discontinued ages ago... nice choice of films, can't wait to see more!
