I may be in a bit of a luxury situation, but I keep kits for
different purposes, each ready in a bag. Each kit contains the lenses
and bodies for the task the kit is designated for. This does imply
some degree of redundancy among the equipment I have, however I can
just "grap a bag" and be ready.
I also have a body or two in reserve, for when some of what I use is
being CLA'ed.
Basically, most of my bodies see on avg. abt. 50 films/year, so they
do get used. The only exception is an OM30, which I am trying to
offload to someone.
