The trouble is that anything significantly larger, and with adequate padding, seems to say "HELLO EVERYONE, I'M A CAMERA BAG!", and - after the recent experiences of our friend with the muggers - that's not something I find acceptable. >> David: I believe the advantage of the fanny pack is that it is more difficult for a thief to relieve you of it....at least in my case, he would have to take the "fanny" as well. If he is man enough to carry mine off......well, he can have the camera! Jay P. JayPax@aol.com
