I have a generic fanny-pack that I bought at a outdoor/hiking store. I use it when I don't want to advertise I am carrying a single camera (some museums, places inhabited by shady characters, bad weather, etc), or when I want to secure the camera during non-shooting lulls in the action. I carry the fanny pack on the lower back generally, but pull it around up front if I am concerned about security. IT fits so well I forget I have it on until I sit down. Otherwise I agree with the many suggestions of carrying the camera over the shoulder (as opposed to around the neck) with a Domke strap. regards Jack Jack McLain Tucson, AZ http://jackmclain-photography.dotcommunity.net -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jmclainaz=comcast.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jmclainaz=comcast.net@leica-users.org]On Behalf Of Douglas M. Sharp Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 4:18 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Yet another bag question Bought a bum-bag (fanny-pack ?) at a shop at Gatwick airport, supposed to be for p+s cameras. A leica M6 with a 35/3.5 or a collapsible Elmar 50 fits perfectly - the bag also has a compartment at each end for 35mm film. The trick is to buy 2 and wear them round the front, The second one can take up to 3 lenses and another 2 films. As far as I remember they were about 3.99 pounds each, inconspicuous,very sturdy and showerproof. You can probably find them at any airport too Douglas jerryleh@pacbell.net schrieb: >Rei > >WTF have so many of you refused to answer his question?
