A few thoughts:

- FF lenses will be normally bigger than APSC lenses;

- Fast lenses will be always bigger than slower lenses, regardless of the format.

- The compromise on size and weight is personal.

Thanks for sharing your journey.

True, but what I meant was how the 2013 setup was feather-light when compared to my 2022 arsenal.

And apart from DR not realess capable.

Which brings me to the third point above: what we are willing to carry is personal. Certainly there is today light gear too, so somewhere along the way from 2013 you made the choice of going on travel with heavier gear.

Reminds me of a Bresson quote: "photographing is nothing, looking is everything". Once we hone that second part of the sentence (which is not easy), then we can decide on where to compromise technically and gear wise.
