Actually, it looks like those ThinkTank models will only be OK with hood reversed on a long lens, so not ideal. Maybe Lowepro or someone has something more suitable.

Or how about the R-Strap?....

some very good points, so i should probably keep some cash back as she'll be after another camera soon

from you experienced wedding togs do you all have two cameras to keep swapping so you don't have to mess with swapping lenses and settings? - as tdodd does?

very good point that

^^sometimes, but I find that if i've put my camera body down, it takes as long to pick it up as I can faster than fast swap a lens (well not quite lol), but I am a bit against using my cheap backup body, as the images are not as good as with my main, but am finally solving that problem soon

for a lot of the stuff i do, 2 bodies with different lenses are essential, with one living over each shoulder most of the time. sometimes theres a 300mm f2.8 over one of them in addition. it makes for a tiring day though.......
