    The M90 has a starting weight of 8.6 lbs and the D830 has a starting weight of 5.97. A "maxed out" D830 supposedly gains abut one to one and a half lbs, so I'm guessing a ",axed out" M90 would also gain about the same weight.

    Therefore I believe the weight difference is a bit greater than you suggest.
