Re: Yet another bag question

In cool weather a leather flight jacket has pockets big enough for a Leica M and 135mm APO-Telyt (lens not mounted). You could put a Tri-Elmar or 35mm f/2 Summicron-M ASPH in the other pocket for a complete cold-weather outfit. I've done this when I wanted to go somewhere and be photographically inconspicuous until I took the picture.

Clive--

the easiest thing is to have a smaller camera and a larger pocket-- I have successfully carried my IIf with the Summicron lens collapsed in the front pocket f my khakis-- and i have a little wrist strap for it when it is my hand. of course jacket pockets work, too.

a CL might be a good pocket camera a Rollei 35 S is surely pocketable.

When i want to carry a Leica body and two-4 extra lenses i like a canvas book bag with a Domke 3-pocket insert.

A nd, of course I have waist belts and some camera bags too,.

Lately I have been carrying a small Sony digital in my pocket-- shirt or trousers -- asa replacement for my Minox
spy" cameras -- which, IMO are the most easily toted cameras around.

On time i took a trip with TWO Minox IIIs, a minox tripod, a binocular adapter, extra film and a light meter -- it all fit into a cheap traveler's jewelry case (about 2x6x8 inches) I found at TJ MAX. The binocular had to be carried separately
