anyone else interested in these at all? I have the normal retro 10 and love it as a transport bag, but I've been looking for a shooting solution for a while now. Something for lenses and accessories with easy access w/o setting it down. I don't like belt systems (I have one) and backpacks all seem to suck (I want side access to the whole thing like the incase DSLR sling but with 2 straps). Slings are OK but need a second strap...

Anyway, has anyone here seen one? Bought one? The normal retros are insanely popular with 25k+ views to the threads, but what about the lens changers?

Also, another random thought I had, was imagine if the lens changer dropped inside the retro? Basically, the changer was your divider set, swap the strap from the bag to the changer and shoot out of it leaving the bag someplace safe? The changer 2 actually fits inside the retro 20 FYI... ;) the 3 is taller than the 30, but would otherwise fit, not sure if it could be pushed down to make fit?

I'm not tracking you here. You want a lens changer to attach to your retro 10? That works great. Or are you thinking of something else?

You idea of putting the lenses in the retro 10 in the lens changers would work fine too but it would be harder to get the lens out of the changer.
