When I was flying a lot, on the job, I carried my photo equipment in an aluminum Haliburton case that was secure, non deformable and always fit in the overhead. I carried a body, with cap on, a lens or two, flash, rolls of film, close up diopters and file folders related to the work at hand.
I still have the case that I haven't used in years - anyone interested in it? -----Original Message----- >From: Paul Stenquist <pnstenqu...@comcast.net> >Subject: Re: Carrying a body without any str.. lenses attached > >I always carry my second body with just a cap on it.
