Actually Sony makes a camera that meets your specs exactly.

I mean Alpha 290.

~500 grams including battery; decent optical viewfinder (0.83x magnification as opposed to usual in its class 0.8x); 14 Mpixel CCD that is remarkably good on low ISO.

So good that when it first appeared in Alpha 350, Sony-based pro-s asked for Alpha 700 replacement with this sensor - no less. Then, when the A500/A550/A450 series arrived, their low-ISO quality was reported to be still inferior to the A350.

If you insist on having a CMOS, there's A450 with the same 0.83x viewfinder.

For the lens, the 16-80 is unbeatable.



Hope this helps,

Oleg.
