I agree that the shootsac is overpriced... I 'd like to see some changes made to it like better neoprene and maybe one that only has 4 pockets and a waterproof flap that covers the whole top. I tried one for a few days and dam it was comfortable but I think it could use a few tweaks. I really just wear now the Y strap with my M and two lenses and a few rolls in my pockets...this is in my opinion the best carry I have ever had. Best- Stephen Schaub Jim-

Basically less is more. As a longtime M shooter I would shoot with just two lenses, a 35 and a 50. I've carried that over the Canon 5D I'm using today. I've found the Fatboy Versipack will carry just a lens or two, phone, wallet, cards, spare battery. More like a "man purse." l like that is slings like your strap. http://www.maxpedition.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=4&idproduct=49 The Shootsac seems pretty pricey. I still use a Kodak waistpack that fills the need you describe too. Cheers, Jim I agree with your philosophy. Basically less is more.
