I do not usually carry the bag around with me while photographing. On occasion, yes. Most of the time I take out one body and lens and stick a second lens in my pocket. If I know ahead of time that I want to use multiple emulsions and various lenses, then I pack the bag, which is very comfortable to carry. Everyone has different requirements and different goals. This is why there are so many different kinds of cameras, lenses, and bags. It takes many years to figure out the right combination. And then, sometimes, you keep modifying it.
