What's a lighter substitute for my Panasonic GH4?

I'm not sure what you'd be gaining as much of the weight/size is in the lenses.

I'm not sure what you'd be gaining as much of the weight/size is in the lenses. I have the same GH4 and lenses (and a couple of other lenses). I actually like a more substantial body so I have the grip permanently attached, as it was with my GH3. As I never remove the grip, I only use one battery at a time which are very large and long-lasting. The extra size added by the grip helps balancing with my longer lenses, such as the 100-300, and larger flashes.

In fact, I'm disappointed that my favorite and most-used cameras, an RX10 and an RX10III, don't have grips available.
