Thanks, John. I have it. I bought it for the walk I did in England back in September of 2013. I ended up leaving it in my duffle bag and carrying the camera in my hand. Even with a light weight lens—A 28/2.8—having the weight of the camera on my neck 8-10 hours everyday got to be pretty tiresome, even a little painful. I find carrying the camera in my hand to be convenient. I always do so on hikes in the North Georgia mountains. I wrap the shoulder strap around my wrist, so even if I let go of the camera it doesn’t fall to the ground. It certainly makes the camera very accessible, and I don’t find it awkward at all. Of course, if I were to take a full body fall, as I have a couple times, the camera is at risk. But that’s the case pretty much however you carry the camera, and so far my camera hasn’t suffered a scratch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "Imagining the other is a powerful antidote to fanaticism and hatred." - Amos Oz -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
