    You're just like me. Although I'm not relying on my gear since it's not my job. And since insurance-policies cover pretty much nothing, I didn't go trough with it and decided to be careful.


    However if I would pay that much for a shoulderbag and had the equipment you have and have to rely on it... I would seriously consider insurance.


    That's one big new shoulder-bag your getting. I hope it works out better for you []

    I think the bag will be perfect. I've been needing a do everything type bag like this since I left my last job. I had the backpack because I worked at the paper where it came in handy because I was always running somewhere. The bad thing was to get to your gear it had to be set down on a flat surface which cost a lot of time. Plus it was easy to grab when it was not properly zipped up which I never did but came close once. I will be so glad to have this new bag. 149.00 at amazon. The scary thing with the back pack was that I rode my motorcycle with it all the time. Just think about your gear falling out at 70mph plus on the highway! If photo insurance is anything like my car insurance then they can shove it up their you know what. I will most likely be looking into insurance as it would be a lot more simple if something really goes wrong. One time I thought I left my brand new 5D2, 15mm fisheye and my 360 head setting out at the airport in a bag but after hours of looking for them they showed up in the trunk behind the speaker box. My heart almost did not recover from that one.
