My newly acquired reference (Prof. Weiser's book see previous note) also
lists camera size and weight.

>From there I read that the Realist 3.5 weighs 790 grams while the Revere 33
weighs 760 grams.

For practical engineers like BobH and myself, a difference of 30 grams
(which is approximately the weight of one roll of film) does not qualify as
a "significant" difference.  But an artist like Greg might see things
differently.... ;)
