With the Post Office Strap, it's as comfortable as or more comfortable than any other shoulder bag out there given the same gear load, but if I'm doing more walking than shooting with any bag, I'll use the Domke or Tenba backpack strap accessories.

Thanks guys for suggestions! Finally had the chance to trek over to B&H with my gear and try out a few Domke's. After driving the guys at B&H crazy trying different bags I ended up with the F-6. The F-2 was very close. With the F-2 I was planning on storing the Lee multi filter pouch standing up in one of the outside pockets but I wouldn't fit. They're all too short. This meant it had to go into the main compartment which isn't much larger than the F-6 main compartment. I can get everything that I usually carry in my Crumpler 7 Million bag into the F-6! I was shocked! This little bag can hold a lot! Can't wait to take it out for a test drive.      Removable padded compartment with removable padded divider.  Setup with Domke's removable padded compartment. Can't store my camera with a lens attached. 1. Lee Filter Foundation Kit and adaptor rings. 2. Memory card wallet, lens pen and bubble level 3. Canon 28-70mm f/2.8 L with hood reversed 4. Remote switch and right eye viewfinder 5. Canon 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye 6. Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L II 7. Canon 1Ds Mk II 8. Lee Multi Filter Pouch and extra Canon Ni-MH Pack NP-E3 battery  Setup without the compartment but with 2 Zing neoprene pouches. Can store my camera with either my 16-35 or 28-70 (hood attached) attached. 1. Canon 1Ds Mk II with Canon 28-70mm f/2.8 L with hood reversed 2. Memory card wallet, remote switch, lens pen and bubble level 3. Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L II, hood under Zing pouch 4. Canon 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye and right eye viewfinder in Zing pouch 5. Lee Filter Foundation Kit and adaptor rings. 6. Lee Multi Filter Pouch, right eye viewfinder and extra Canon Ni-MH Pack NP-E3 battery  Chris

They also come in sand and (blah) black. Except for two grey bags (F1x and F2), one black (F-612, which doesn't come in any other colour, but does nicely for the 300 2.8) and a navy blue (F2), mine are all sand. And I really need a sand F1x for birding - the grey just doesn't cut it there. Jon

Thanks guys! Next I'll try my wife's 5D instead of my 1Ds MK II. Will definitely free up some space and weight! Chris

My F2 is that colour (got it used; I've quite come to like it.) My F3/X is ruggedwear. I should have bought sand. Dave

This was one of the reasons I got the olive green. The label blends in and doesn't stand out. Chris
