Hm, I didn't realise there was that little clearance between front and back --
the one I use to tote water/repair kit/etc around only sits maybe 8" off my
back at most, but I suppose there's aerodynamic advantages to being right up
next to one another.
Panniers? It'd be a bit rattlier, but if you got something like this:

it would solve that problem, and you could put on one of those seatpost-mounted
rear racks to keep it suspended relative to the road. Those have a 30lb weight
limit or something, that's still a fair bit of camera kit. I guess it's getting
further and further away from 'quick' -- possibly you could look at sewing
pannier hooks onto the back of a camera bag and a stiffening plate in there to
keep it from swinging around too much, but I'll admit it's a trickier problem
than I'd first thought.
