Do you carry your camera with you every day?

I only take my camera to places that I know I will be taking photos. I.e places I've deliberately gone to for photography. However, I do have a camera on me all of the time if I see something unexpected that I want to photograph. I call it the iPhone. Since iPhone 4, the cameras on these beauties are surprisingly good. I've also paid into photo apps to instantly add basic effects. Really useful for when I'm caught out without my camera.
 
Yes!
But only since gettin my epl1. Which i originally purchased as my street shooter, poor mans leica, i know. But once i got to know it a little better i realised how good it could be. I find i shoot something most days with it and even use it for rough sketch images if i see something i would like to return to and shoot with a bit more pre meditation.
So yes, every morning my triple tap is now a quad pat.., wallet keys phone and now,camera.
Also i restrict myself to an Om legacy, Miranda 28MM manual focus f1.8 to keep the thought process alive
 
Its an odd day if I don't have my Lowepro Passport Sling on me with my NEX-5n 18-55mm + 16mm with me. Its useful for me because it holds everything I need for pretty much any situation, and I don't have to fill up my pockets with things.

The 1D Mark IV - Not as often as I'd like due to the size / weight of it with my favourite lens (70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM). If I'm going out for a long day or weekend I'll put the kitbag in the boot of the car just in case. If I carry it I leave the NEX at home and just put the 1D on a BlackRapid RS-Sport.

At any rate, the NEX draws much less attention than the 1D, especially when doing Street or Candid.
 
One of my s5pros is always in the boot of my car,i have a cheap busbi stills/video camera and a couple of £1 shop film cameras in the glove compartment and my camera phone is always in my pocket
