If I am shooting where I am on the run now such as at a football game or such I use an old Marine Corps web belt with various pouches and lens holders on it. Carry film, lenses, light meters and such on belt cameras on straps on shoulders. The belt takes almost all weight off shoulders and makes for a much better day of shooting. Learned to do this when shooting PGA golf, especially the Masters as EVERYWHERE on that course is uphill. Don't know how the heck they did that but it is true...... Plus with the belt system if I gotta run I do not worry about junk falling out of pockets. If you want to spend money on a system get the Lightware belt system. Looks quite nice but it Ain't cheap. - -- Harrison McClary http://www.mcclary.net
