Yes, for me, it's the "one shoulder" thing for anything. I've just
looked more closely at the Tamrac Velocity (I didn't notice the
first time that it only had one shoulder strap - thanks, Dan!)
and I probably wouldn't even try it now, though it is different
from using one shoulder strap on a backpack, schoolyard-style,
in that there is weight on the opposide side of the body. Mind
you, I *really* like the look of it - it and the Lowepro
Slingshots look like a very nice blend (thanks, Moose and Dan).

I think the Orion AW might be what I'm after (large bumbag, and
converts into a "daypack"/backpack).

Cheers,
Marc (really just finding excuses to browse photo-stores)
