The camera is VERY light, it's more like a toy than a real camera. It's all made of plastic. I don't know if it's 1 pound, but it IS light. It's cool to use though.

Description says "Shipping Weight: 1.5 pounds" I also would like to know what the package weight and size is as I would more than likely pack it in a backpack in the package.

I would assume that there is a weight associated with the shipping information on Amazon. But its not too heavy. But you do need weights like sandbags to keep it sturdy.

I do not have the packing slip anymore, but the item itself (case and contents) is 4 lbs 1.5 oz.

The product info states that the product weight is one pound and that the shipping weight is "three pounds." Yes, it's excessive to be sure "they" don't under charge.

The product information indicates the shipping weight is 76.1 pounds. It was very heavy and the delivery man brought it from the truck on a wheeled cart.

I've actually purchased both products and neither package weighed 1.2 pounds. I think that shipping weight has more to do with how shipping cost is calculated and not the actual weight of the shipped package.

I've never actually weighed it but it is very light so 1 lb. probably is at least close if not right on.

the weight was 0.1 pound , the product is small but it was put in a shipping envelope with dimensions of approximately 12 X 10 X 2 CM

I no longer have the packaging materials but the item weighs slightly more than one pound, so two pounds w/ packing doesn't sound unreasonable.

This battery weighs around 10 ounces if that. There is no way shipping weight is more than 1 pound.

The weight depends on who packages it for shipping. I would think it would be about 1.5 - 2 pounds.

I just put mine on a postage scale: 15.0 oz. Maybe you are looking at the shipping weight. Is has some heft because there is a battery in it that seems to last forever.

The unit itself weights less than a pound just a few ounces. For shipping purposes the unit accessories and cases are just over a pound. These are estimates. As the packaging does not say.

Because Amazon's shipping calculator is off. To get the shipping right on this, I use the shipping wheight to adjust shipping price. The actual product weight is 15lbs. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need anything else. Matt

Shipping weight is a pound, very light weight plastic. It does look nice though. Mine is to sit on a wood floor without scratching, it does the job.
