The F5XB is too small for that kit. It would work without the 14mm but not with it. The F5XC would fit it nicely... But I think the F6 is a better choice, or the F803. Godfrey - www.gdgphoto.com On Apr 20, 2008, at 8:45 AM, Scott Loveless <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Bob W wrote: >> Domke F-

Charles, although not over the shoulder bag but still, I settled on Lowepro Orion Trekker II. The lower half is photo bag which will probably hold your gear very nicely. The upper half is just a bag. Pretty useful for my purposes. Have a good hunt! Boris Charles Wilson wrote: > Dear All, >

Personally, I like the Tamrac & Lowe bags when things need to be protected. The padding reminds me of modern athletic shoes with all the padding involved. The large Lowe is very suitable for my 4x5 and small Tamrac bags are nice when not much hardware is needed. But for carrying a lot of 135/dig

I rather like neckstraps. I feel a bit nervous handling a camera without a strap around my neck in case I accidently drop it. It's sort of like the feeling of being in a car without a seatbelt on... just doesn't feel right. --- Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I feel the same way ..

I feel the same way ... My cameras have at most a wrist strap on them, hate neckstraps. Both the cases i suggested are light and modest in size. Given what you say, the Lowepro Photo Runner may be perfect for your needs. It does not get in the way. I most often have it filled with nothing
