240 G Claron is light and compact, single coated and found in modern copal shutters. Very bright for focusing, too even though it's an f/9. I tend to shoot at f/45 unless I run out of image circle, then I stop down as needed. It will take screw on filters you may already have if you've shot 35mm SLRs
19" Artars are comparatively lightwieght for a long lens---some have aluminum barrels which are even lighter.
These are the two lenses I often take on hikes in the Sierra.
