you know if he was really bright, he should have found someway to setup the tripod on the stroller, that way he doesn't have to setup it up each time.

perhaps that's his baby?

I figured out that it doesn't matter what they use, there are always going to be lazy people.

either way I would just carry the stuff, only because I am able to.

haha love it!

Don't think it would do much for my street cred though!

I fail to see the reasoning for the shot at a fellow photographer just because he happens to use a different brand. Perhaps it could be labelled Are Nikon Shooters smarter than Canon Shooters! The man was using his head. I have bought several different sized bags with wheels that makes lugging stuff around alot easier.

thank you for saying that Sheldon, i couldn't agree with you more.

to the OP- how was your back at the end of the day? i am sure that the lazy Nikon shooter was very fresh even after a full day of shooting.

This guy is genius! I tell ya, I am a young fella and I have a crooked back. When I carry a bag of 2 white lenses, one 24-? lens, one UWA lens and two camera bodies. It feels like I have a monkey on my back. A big Chimpanzee ape.

I am not sure I would go this route as a stroller would kinda suck but often I have thought about a good dolly with big inflatable tires and maybe building a box on it or something. Put my bag in the box, make it water proof and if I need a seat sit on the box. Until now I thought I would be crazy. Now I dont think so.

Besides Nikon lenses must be heavier then Canon lenses, why else would they cost so much more ? :lol: lol

My back is just fine, I carry what I need when I go shooting not all the gear I own. That is just overkill. I had my D60 with 70-200 and 2x extender + a monopod. Do you really need more?
