C*non 24-105/4 + 100-400/4.5-5.6 ?

Probably DOF options would be as good with the FF C*non as the Zuiko
due to the format size. C*non has the ISO advantage, so exposure
shouldn't be an issue.

Oh ... there was a mention of actually being able to carry the lenses.
OK advantage to the Zuikos. Actually the 24-105 doesn't look too bad
for weight.
