The correct and exact answer if hf/c^2 the mass depends on the frequency.
You can weigh it by using a light beam trapped betwen mirrors, weigh before
and after inserting the light.
You could use a semi - silvered mirror facing a normal mirror put in a
microbalance in darkness and then put a beam from a laser through the half
silvered part.
The mass will increase by nhf/c^2 where in the the average number of trapped
photons.

and if you dont mind that gives exactly the result
of my prediction a few years ago
it is exactly h/c^2 kg (in the MKS system )
the smallest posible photon mass!!!!
