Hi Ken,
When I'm walking, I'm most always toting a generic JanSport backpack.
I need it for a coat and/or food. I'm selling my Olympus Stylus Epic which
I've replaced with a Leica IIIf and Canon 35/2.8. When I want to ride
long on my bicycle the Leica can fit in the back pocket. However, I
think I will be looking for a clean, coated Elmar 50/3.5, because it's
smaller and I like the 50mm focal length.
Cheers,
Rich
