What do you use to carry equipment?

@Dave

Dividers. The pluck foam does indeed take up silly amount of space and the padded dividers give just as good protection.

We don't use the top handle at all but it looks like it could fit in with it on.

Heres the pic

I'm impressed - 15 replies and no one has said "my wife" or "my girlfriend." :-)

The reason I mentioned the laundary basket is because I would like a place to put my flycam. I am hoping to find something that will protect while it sits upright, and I could just grab it and go. I would like to balance it, leave the camera on, and place it down in a secured area.

Hi Colin

Only in Africa does the woman take on the load bearing jobs and that is simply because the man has to walk out in front of her with his hand free to be able to repel any wild animals that could attack them on their walk. Of course that was many years ago when there actually WAS a chance of being pounced on by an hungry pride of lions but not likely to happen nowdays! Of course the tradition still lives on especially in rural South Africa and one will see a woman with a bag of groceries perched on her head while her husband walks in front of her not with any sort of weapon any more but more likely an iPhone!!
