A CV 21/4 and Leica 90/2.8 in the middle section. Film in one outer pouch, and the SF24 in another. But it's a *tight* sqeeze. Just a little more wiggle room is what I'm looking for. I've got a CV 28 metal finder on the M + 28/2, a 1.25x mag and sometimes a RRS quick release plate on the .72 body. I love the small package and vertical weight distribution, but just a leeetle more ease of getting stuff in/out would be perfect.
