I think I finally have this bag thing figuered out: For my magazine work, small job; Domke F6 carries 2 Leica Ms with lens attached, 4 Nikor primes, Nikor SB28, 1 Nikon F3HP w/motor drive over shoulder. Magazine work, big job; Domke F2 carries 2 Nikon F3HPs w/motor drive, 5 Nikor primes, SB28, 1 Leica w/lens. Protest demonstration (such as George Bush inaugration or IMF demo); Domke F6 carries 4 Leica Ms plus lenses. Street Photography; Classic M satchel bag carries 2 Leica Ms plus 1 additional lens. Lighter IS much better. sl
