With the generous help of the members of this forum - I'm happy to announce that my gently used / X-T3 has arrived and seems to be in mint condition (only 167 shutter count / and extra battery included).

It came with a 16-80 mm lens which I find a bit heavy for everyday use and I'm wondering if there is something a bit lighter? I'm going whale / iceburg watching this summer on a trip and would like to travel light (if that factors into the equation).

(I have ordered a hand grip for improved ergonomics).

The 16-80mm is about as general purpose as one can get.  If that is too heavy for you sell the camera and get a super zoom.   For wale watching and not getting heavy, try the 70-300mm and hope they are close.
