Hi Dave, I would suggest a Domke or Tenbo canvas bags. Look like normal bag, not camera bag, and some of the smaller models would be just for that. And as I can attest, even it doesn't look weatherproof, my Domkes survived day-long downpours at a sporting events without the cameras inside getting

Dave, I was at B&H today and I looked at toploaders for you. Most of the toploaders that have a belt loop looked to me like they'd be awkward to wear (just my opinion) but you might find that the Lowepro Off Trail 1 or Off Trail 2 work out for you. These have their own waist belts and detachable

Glad to know you're getting good use from it, and that the prototype has held up over time. I made a few for my Pentax lenses, so now two or three lenses (depending on focal length and whether or not a lens hood is attached) will fit in one compartment of the Domke F-803. Shel > [Original Mess

Well, some pockets have proper secure closures on them, plus being deep enough that something is not likely to fall out accidently anyhow. OTOH handwarmer pockets are useless for carrying anything you don't want to lose. A little common sense does help. graywolf http://www.graywolfphoto.com "Idi
