Hello.
I own a panasonic fz15 camera, The fz20 has the same body so ill just count it in.
My question is, how do you carry the camera when you take shots?
I mean, i always carry it with the strap, but its kinda heavy and when you walk its very uncomfortable, so i always get it inside my bag, and when i want to take another shot, i get it out of the bag and so on, its kind of an annoying issue.
If you could please tell me how do you carry the camera while you are in a photograph trip or whatsoever, That would be nice.
Thanks

I use a wrist strap, seems to be more comfortable than the neck strap.

i use the tamrac velocity 6 bag which you wear across your chest. when a photo opportunity arises you swing it round open it and whip it out. i find i dont need to have it in my hand all the time.

i use an op-tech strap which has quick-release snap connectors. the neck part is wide neoprene so its very comfy even with the external flash. what works well for me is i can convert it to a wrist strap by simply releasing the neoprene neck part and lock the straps connected to the camera. check it out here... http://www.optechusa.com/ (Op-Tech USA)

I have a waist-pac, TEK Digital by Tamrac, a shoulder strapped Samsonite that is twice as long as the TEk [to hold lenses] and a Lowe's Aluminum tool case. I pack all three for car trips. Too much debris.
I have the original Pana strap attached to the FZ20 with only one end to the camera. The other end is attached to the strap itself. There is a 10 inch single strap then a loop. I can keep the loop around my neck and the camera in the waist-pac ready to use. I guess I am paranoid about dropping the FZ20.
