Yup. I see them in ad's and imagine them overflowing with Leica glass and
Hassy bodies... Maybe a Halliburton or two would look a little less
conspicuous :)
I do however need something larger than what I have (Tamrac photo-video 7)
I'm going to try and compare the Domke, Tamrac, and whatever brands I can
find locally.
I do like how the Tamrac's have a zip-close main compartment over the buckle
and velcro Domke bags.
As far as weight goes, I don't plan on carrying everything I own... A
little extra space for a lunch or something would be even better. I'd
rather carry one bag than two (which is what I do now)
