Best way to carry multiple camera bodies?

maxwell1295 · 07-22-2008, 06:44 AM

For folks who shoot events and carry more than one body, how do you do it? I've been walking around shooting with both bodies, carrying them on seperate straps. Usually one around the neck and the other slung over the shoulder. That seems to be the best way to have access to both without having them bang against each other.

Do you use one strap for each body? Is there a strap out there that will make it easier to deal with more than one body at a time?

Get an assistant. Preferably someone young and pretty...

Seriously, if said assistant were well endowed, there would be built in cushioning and separation. Failing that, you could always attempt to grow your own

Apart from the neck and shoulder thing, or the two shoulder variant, you can do an extra long strap + short strap and so stack the cameras up front. I vaguely recall some sort of harness for sale to do this sort of thing...
