Yes, that's a good idea.
But what if your aim when carrying two bodies is not to use 2
different films, but to avoid having to change lenses too often, i.e.
you mount your 2 "main" lenses on these 2 bodies?
I normally carry a Domke bag, preferably a small one (F6 or even F3X,
F2 is a little bit too large), and the camera is in the bag or in my
hand. I like the Domke bags because they allow quick access and are
not too rigid, they fold around my hip. And I could not imagine
wearing a photo vest when travelling, in a country such as India.
So... two bodies with lenses mounted in the bag (let's say F6), this
doesn't fit easily except in a very big bag. Or perhaps one body nose
down, with the lens pointing into one of the 4 compartments of the
Domke 4-pockets insert, and the other body on the side of the insert.
A little bit cumbersome though.
How do you pratice this when you carry an OM-2S and an OM-4 ? (In my
case, OM-4Ti and OM-40).
