Hi Jack, thanks. I must admit I used to carry all kinds of kit, until one day I figured, most of it never gets used. A couple of years ago I would have had a bag containing up to 8 lenses! just got too much. Now I make do with whatever I've decided was enough before I left the house.

I used to carry everything I had with me..with the help of my Sherpa wife. Got to be a drag (almost literally), so now I leave the 'mother' bag home or in the rig and carry a small bag with only enough room for a second body, one lens, an extra battery and card. Am often glad I have the extra lens.
