Hello media and Artsy People!

I am thinking about getting a lumbar (fanny) pack to carry my t2i in while skiing. I think this will be easier to access than my backpack, easier to ride the lift with, and easier to ski with. I was wondering if any of you have ever done this and what you think of the idea. Any and all suggestions/criticisms/advice are very welcome, +K for help

I'm also in the market for a similar bag too. Laugh all you want, but being able to store a second lens/batteries/cards with super quick access during a wedding is huge for me. I had a pouch for a z-evf I could squeeze a lens in, but i'd like something padded and maybe with pockets for cards/batteries

sorry to threadjack, OP, check out the Mindshift 180 backpack

haha, sweet, I will do that. I realize that I will probably look like a grandma but I can live with that, probably going to get a hunting one from the sporting goods store...lots of pockets, padding and insulation, not so good for wedding style though...

the 180 pack I mentioned is nice because you can rotate the camera compartment to your back when you aren't using it, which is somewhat safer than just having the pack on

Yes, is it available other than the kickstarter that failed?
