I think you're worrying a bit too much. I find the size an weight is actually an asset for handheld shooting - the extra mass provides inertia which dampens motion. I find slow shutter work more difficult with tiny light weight lenses. Similarly, tracking is more stable.

The weight will take a little getting used to, but once done, I think you'll find things easier.

Thanks. I think you are correct.
