Well, this isn't profession looking but there was an article in Popular
Photo a few months back by a fellow who uses coolers to carry camera gear.
Yes, coolers. The hardest part for him was getting on an airplane and the
flight attendents hasseling him on account they thought he was carrying a
six pack or two of beer. He's never had any cameras stolen and the gear
stays cool. Doesn't worry about thieves that much except maybe in Jelly
Stone Park where Yogi Bear lives....
