I sold it because it did not fit my style of shooting. I tend to like to work with one body switching lenses when I need to. And I didn't think it worked well with that style. Which is one reason I love my f803 so much.
When I did the double barrel thing (ie- body over each shoulder one with wide zoom and one with tele zoom) it was very nice. When I shoot that way all I have to carry is extra cards and batteries so I'm not getting into very often. Here's what I wrote about it back when I first got it and was using it to cover the biggest festival in the area (back then I loved it, and I have a sneaking suspicion that when this year's festival rolls around I might /really/ miss it): http://f8andbethere.blogspot.com/2006/11/who-is-that-hunk-of-guy.html http://f8andbethere.blogspot.com/2006/11/chestvest.html Couple other things that came to be annoying to me about it were that it does look like you're some kind of unabomber or something. Especially combined with my standard choice of grey hooded jacket. And two, those pockets do stick out a little making squeezing through tight spaces awkward sometimes.
