Hi fellow photogs,
Looking for any advice or recommendations to work with 2 dslr's at a time, what devices have you used? Pros and Cons, thanks for any advice.
My 2 cameras are a Nikon D90 and Nikon D7000.

This is what I use, works great and VERY comfortable for all day wear with 2 bodies.

The Cotton Carrier is great! It takes all of the weight off your shoulders and back and puts it on your hips. Many safety features for your cameras as well. I ordered mine off Ebay and was able to get a few extra things free. Its one of my best investments!!!

I think Optech may be the choice for me. Thanks to everyone for their input. Have a question for anyone - how do these work with flashes attached, or is the use best for outdoors without attached flash? I am thinking of getting one for an upcoming wedding.

It will if you use the slow focus converter, I have a spare if you need one, only $50 shipped! :lol:

I have never used one with a flash attached to the body while working, all my shooting is outdoors, and when I have a flash with me its safe in a vest pocket. I think it would matter as to how much you were moving around during the shoot, that flash is in a pretty vulnerable position if you're not careful.
