Originally posted by magkelly It's downtown which can be rough. I don't particularly feel like risking a mugging just so I can see Batman
Mind if I ask which city in general.
I've carried the (yellow bee - almost glow yellow) LowePro DZ all over the place with a Leica around my neck and never run into a problem. That's in every boro in NYC; even Broadway at most every time of day - yes even 4 & 5 am (see my profile pic for that one single submitted pic); Central Park overnight, etc... And it's not just one city; also included Tampa, Philly, Atlanta, L.A, etc...
Although I've also personally found ways to intervene in trouble as well. I saw a domestic where on person hit another and it was goig south quickly. I actually drew a gun on that one; with hammer back and laser sight on; the finger was also exerting a bit of pressure on the trigger - not in the safety position that police often use.
