Hey, Gray-y, I've never seen a correspondent in a photo jacket - only photo dweebs! I love the word Dweeb.
Most of the photojournalists that I know / have seen use Domke. The F-803 which Shel recommended would be my choice, if I could get one here. What I currently use for the type of kit described is a LowePro Street & Field Reporter 200, which is very useful and versatile. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009R8A6/102-4625644-4597749 ?v=glance My main criticisms of it are: 1. It's ballistic nylon, so it is sweaty in hot climates where it makes contact with your body 2. It doesn't really need 2 fasteners - one would be better 3. It should have a Domke-type fastener for speed of opening and closing - you need 2 hands to close it, with Domkes you only need one. 4. I don't like the sculpted style of shoulder strap. -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: Graywolf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 20 June 2005 04:07 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Camera bags (yet again) > > Nothing like the desert or the jungle, huh? > > Never worn one?
