My M stuff (M6, 24, 35, 75) is carried, while photographing, in a Woolrich photo vest. M6 and one lens around my neck, two lenses, film, filters, etc., in the vest. Otherwise it (the M6 stuff) resides in a large black leather "brief/bag/purse" which also contains paperwork, Palm III, phone, and other work related stuff. I described this bag months ago on the LUG. I found it in a company called "Back Saver" 's catalog. I have two Billingham pockets velcro'ed in one side of the bag. There is a divider down the middle of the bag. M6 on one side, work stuff on the other. My R stuff and M stuff are not used together. They require different mental attitudes. I'm either R/Linhof 'ing or I'm M 'ing. Never the twain shall meet.
