Get you're self one these super light and solid stoves only $17. I've had one going for over a year now with no issues, I know folks who have had them for longer. Then find a titanium pot and spork. I really like this one. There are cheaper ones but titanium is the way to go. Save money with the cheap stove and get the light weight pot instead. This set up is all you need and will save you weight and allow you to carry more camera gear.
I'd rather get the BRS 3000 instead. Half the price and a quarter of the weight. It's often recommended over at /r/ultralight as well.
Some technical perspective:
I've done testing that shows that the heat exchanger on the jetboil does indeed boost the efficiency a lot. 68% of the chemical potential energy from the fuel makes it into the water, vs. an average of 53% with a flat-bottomed pot on an open stove.
1.3x efficiency means you only need about 3/4 as much fuel--but how does that affect overall cook system weight?
Let's assume you're cooking meals that each require 2 cups of water and you're eating 2 of those per day. That means you're bringing about a liter of water to a boil every day.
If you have one of these little guys and titanium pot that weighs 145g, your base weight starts dramatically lower than a jetboil--403g as opposed to 640.
A liter of 10°C (50°F) water takes 376.6 kilojoules to come to a boil. Your average isobutane mix has an energy density of 46.39kj/g.
Ultimately, that boost in efficiency takes a LONG time to close the gap. The Jetboil just straight loses until the 37 liter mark. That's close to a month between resupplies. Even then, it only edges ahead for a moment before an additional canister puts its weight above the ultralight setup once again.
Here's a chart I put together of various stove systems. It assumes a 1L titanium pot for everything except the jetboil, which uses the PCS pot. This may not be to-the-gram accurate to the newer Jetboil systems, but is probably pretty close.
Of course, there are factors other than weight that go into choosing a stove, but they're harder to quantify.
This is also a great little stove for super cheap that's also super light. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5WRJ8A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_GBBMAbNJGEDAC
There are some great deals to be had on /r/geartrade and /r/ulgeartrade and as mentioned before whiteblaze.net used gear forum.
Look at youtube for videos on ultralight on a budget. Compare things and research. For example GSI's Microdualist cookset is $55 at REI - https://www.rei.com/product/830830/gsi-outdoors-halulite-microdualist-cookset?CAWELAID=120217890000796848&CAGPSPN=pla&CAAGID=15724606000&CATCI=pla-133227615640&cm_mmc=PLA_Google|404_10153|8308300001|none|f679b86e-0c1a-4715-82c0-4c64ac953c04|pla-133227615640&lsft=cm_mmc:PLA_Google_LIA|404_10153|8308300001|none|f679b86e-0c1a-4715-82c0-4c64ac953c04|pla-133227615640&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsa7pmoiv1QIVCAVpCh197gVtEAQYASABEgKojPD_BwE Walmart sells the exact same set (I've got the GSI and I'm kicking myself after seeing this) for $15 - https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ozark-Trail-10-Piece-Easy-Storing-Camp-Cook-Set/49332887 - I've compared them and they are identical except for the utensils!
Amazon for a great titanium stove - $16 - https://www.amazon.com/Titanium-Miniature-Ultra-light-Equipment-Supplies/dp/B01N5WRJ8A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1501351142&sr=8-1&keywords=brs-3000t.
Look at tents from NatureHike - their BA Fly Creek knockoff is a bit heavier and gets fantastic reviews for $100-120ish on ebay or Aliexpress.
You can start out with stuff like this, be relatively light and upgrade from there!

That is not a bad stove, but This one is $10 cheaper, and i've used it, and it's good.
also 320 matches is overkill. Either use a smaller pack or just do a bic lighter. Or maybe waterproof matches.
I use this Fohoz stove with a fuel canister because it’s stupidly ultralight and I can do anything from a rapid boil to just simmering with it. It’s a cheaper version of the BRS stove, but I haven’t had any malfunctions yet. I’ve used it maybe 10 times on a few different trips and it has held up really well. If something breaks, I won’t mind replacing it because of how inexpensive it is.
