My RF 100-400mm weighs only 635 grams and that's great, but my backpack is still often over 15 kg heavy because due to the lighter lens I take other things with me which I often even don't need 😅

Tell me about it :) I often make fun of myself doing the same over and over again! :D

I always have two power banks and other gear with me, although I hardly ever need these. I always have too much to drink and to eat or additional clothes with me and this adds to the weight 😅

This is what I don't like the most about mirrorless.
I have Canon EOS M5 and it "eats" two batteries a day. The worse aspect of that is that when I finally arrive at my place to rest, I cannot go to bed before the first battery is fully recharged so I put the second one to charge.
While with my EOS 5D Mark 3, one battery sometimes last for 3 days until it needs recharging.
Not sure how the situation is with the R series.
But for M5, it is a disaster...

The batterie of the EOS R last about 300 images and two batteries are most times enough for me for a day or two. I always have 4 batteries (3rd party) with me and I recharge them as soon as I'm home, but I also could recharge them in my van if a trip takes longer.

Thanks for sharing that insight. I suspected that, as it seems mirrorless cameras of all brands suffer from that same issue ;) Compared with my 5D where I bring usually two and I almost never get the backup one from the backpack. With the two exceptions when I was mass shooting long exposures of the Northern Lights at temp below the zero. In Norway it was about -20 C and I didn't need the 3rd battery either ;)
I hope that new Sulphur Natrium technology will do the battery side much better in a year or two :)

Digital displays and electronic viewfinders need a lot power, and I do also hope that future batteries will be better and smarter 😀
