Hey guys,
I was wondering what is the most camera gear you have taken as hand luggage on a flight. Oh and how did it weigh?
Thanks

I kept a business card and a $20 USD bill on hand in case of any issues. I was carrying a Pelican case with two 1D(x) bodies, 70-200, 16-35, 24-70, 14, 1.4x and a few other items. J.D

No idea how much it weighed, but since the backpack also held my laptop, I'm sure it was well over any limits they might have. The nice thing about backpacks though is that they're generally not given a second look. I put my tripod in my checked bag. — Neil
