Doesn't seem to save all that much weight and not sure how you would get it in a pocket.
I would still rather have a DSLR and 2 lenses and something like the x100 or xe1 in my pocket. But, then carrying gear is part of my work out keep healthy routine. 

That was taken some time ago before the weight of my gear turned my beard grey!:rofl:
You are absolutely right about the weight saving. I think a clearer division of activity is required...leaving telephotos, tripods and DSLRs at home when walking about. Having a body that CAN cover all ranges isn't necessarily the best option.
