I didn't think about the heat. Yeah, a DSLR with a decent lens is quite heavy. And expensive, so it needs to be protected. It's a tricky problem to do on the cheap. I don't think I'm prepared to spend $3K, my idea was rather to spend some fun time on HW work as a diversion from the regular paid SW work - and to put some use to that expensive camera gear I'm not really using. Thanks for your lessons learned; they have been helpful!
