Buy a little point and shoot camera or even just use your iPhone. You will get great photos from them.

Fujifilm X-e3 , I sold my FF D800 and went with the Fuji I love it !! I paid $799 with an 18-55mm stabilized lens which is considered to be great by everyone .

Unless you need a telephoto zoom consider the FujiFilm X100V. It is a small, light camera and is perfect for landscapes, architecture and people/street photography. It has a 23mm (equivalent 35mm) fixed lens.

The Olympus OMD Em10 m ii or miii with the 14-150 lens is quite light. But also consider some of the smaller cameras such as Sony Rx 100 series. Amazing technology. Bottom line, I think that MANY people get far too spun up on big lenses, full frame, what ever and they are really just taking shots that provide them with memories.

Go with a bridge camera and keep your other camera as a spear or a second. Bridge for movies, second for photos. This is what l do.

Gene51 really laid it out well for you. A mirrorless Nikon will save you body weight, but the lenses will not change much in weight. If you stay with an interchangeable lens systems, probably the lightest way to is a Panasonic or Olympus body with either a Panasonic or Olympus light weight, small aperture superzoom or a slightly heavier, larger aperture zoom (remember, interchangeable for all basic functions). Then there are the all-in-one zooms. As Gene51 pointed out, the heaviest of these is about the same weight as the lighter interchangeable lens systems. But the lighter of these will be the lightest for you to handle. See if the interchangeable lens system will meet your weight needs first. If not, choose an all-in-one that will be adequate for your long lens needs. If you do choose an all-in-one camera, try not to over do the long end since that tends to be the Achilles' heel of all-in-one cameras.
