god topic forst off, I keep it in my under seat pouch, somebody mentioned using a DSLR, now I'm a semi professional photographer and I love my DSLR to death but this is a perfect instance of "time and place" to use a DSLR, with an slr you need to use 2 hands and you also need to peer through the veiw finder rather than just looking looking at the LCD screen, so frankly I think taking pics with a DSLR while riding may not be advisable, sometimes using the little point and shoots really is a better option.
