Doris, you are absolutely right. they are not good for working out of.
I primarily use them to transport stuff. Plus I can throw a bunch of
stuff in them, like spare batteries, cables, etc. More often than not
they are used for storage or hauling my film scanner around.
The bag I use the most is the Lowepro Photo Runner, sometimes two. Most
of my shooting is outdoors. I have yet to find the right combination. I
have two lowepro packs, which I haven't used much. (if anybody would
like a lowepro mini trekker - $50 in new condition). Maybe when I start
carrying around some bigger lenses I'll get around to using them.
For transport, the cooler with FISH BAIT written on it maybe be the
better deterrent.

I noticed these at Home Despot a while back, and they seem very heavy,
awkward to work out of, and in general inferior (though very sturdy)
to most camera bags. Why would one "double-bag", save for transport via
a vehicle ? A bag that is used for tools may be as desirable to a thief
than one that says "camera".
