I use a lowepro toploader bag with their chest harness system. It is okay... not as comfortable as I'd like, but I haven't found a better replacement.

I'm sure it will pay off in the end. Now I can do night photos again!
Ha, I has just achieved a UL setup and then I added 10 pounds of camera gear to the mix. Now I use UL methods to keep my pack weight down but don't sweat the numbers too much.fishmonger wrote:and you've just been banned from all ultra light hiking gear forumsRoguePhotonic wrote:Looks like I am back in the game again.

Hahaha! That would great except it would be a surefire way to get my gear damaged with the way she handles the trail. She likes to run into rivers with the pack on so I have to put gear in there that I'm okay with getting a little wet. She ends up carrying the bourbon and other non-essentials for the most partfishmonger wrote:let me guess one of those UL methods: looks like you have some really nice lens bags on that dog avatar...schmalz wrote:Ha, I has just achieved a UL setup and then I added 10 pounds of camera gear to the mix.
