And it weighs enough - the Mamiya C3.  Though perhaps this one is a tad lighter being relieved of its normal lenses and bearing instead the shutters of a pair of Agfa Isolettes with just the rear elements in place.

But anyway, at 1.78Kg it's incredibly stable around the neck.  And one of the best single meniscus lens set-ups I've tried so far.   8)  :D  8)
