Frank, Have been considering a "Dryzone" for my 5x7 field view and gear. What do you think of the size - I've never seen one in real life before :) Rob -----Original Message----- From: rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:rollei_list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Frank Dernie Sent: Saturday, May 14, 2005 11:00 AM To: rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [rollei_list] Re: Items FS 13 MAY 2005 Per Einar, The dryzone is a much more sophisticated backpack than the mini trekker, and much more expensive. The shoulder straps too. For me personally I would rather work on minimising the weight of the stuff I carry than have a more sophisticated harness. The padding is fine in the mini trekker. Your requirements may differ from mine. Mine will carry a Mamiya 7 and a EOS digital with a few lenses and a tripod.
