Ken,
I have a Fogg bee bag which I sometimes use for my M Leicas. It holds 2
bodies, 4 lenses, some small accessories and some rolls of film. =
>>Is the narrow compartment usually used to house bodies without lenses?<=
<
I use the narrow compartment for a table-top tripod, cable release,
filters, lens cleaning cloth etc. So, looking at the bag from the top, it=
looks like this (bottom of the screenis backside of the bag) :
--------------------

I M6 I M6 I 90/2.8 I
I + I + I + I
I 35/2 I 21/2.8 I 50/2 I
+--------+--------+--------+
However, for day-to-day useI prefer my Billingham Hadley by far (actually=
I
just bought a second one as my first one was almost falling afterbeing
damaged in an accident). It can hold 2 bodies, 5 lenses, a Metz 40 MZ-3
flash unit and leaves enough room for accessories and film. More importan=
t,
it doesn=B4t look as much like a photo bag as the bee bag does, so I thin=
k it
will be less interesting for thieves.
