that is what teh R.E. Load is for. rarely do i need to carry the camera. when i can i stick it into the photographers car, but it s a small car, so i can really only fit the camera in there, and some times the tri-pod. i normally carry a few misc things, like a pelican case with the wireless mic and receiver, 7"LCD, few rolls of gaph tape, batteries (camera batteries and AA and D for the mic/receiver) release forms, anda few other things. if i really need to take a light kit, i'll take my car. i just want something comfy that i can rely on when i am in a pinch and i need to carry more than normal.
and you wouldn't believe the pile of crap i pulled out of my bag today. god knows how long i have been carrying and extra 10 lbs of junk! a bit of an over exaggeration, but only by a little but. my bag was much lighter on my way to work today.
