Ever since I started taking medication I\'ve especially become sensitive to choking sensations. Even thinking about a body with a large lens hanging off my neck makes me want to throw up -- especially right before I get ready to put it around my neck -- the visceral response is just so great. But I don\'t feel safe leaving it on my arm....I was thinking, one wrong move of the shoulder and my camera could fall off!
There are times I want to hang out and socialize with my friends at the same time I am documenting an event for my college organization, hold a drink, eat, etc. So sometimes I put it in my knapsack instead, but this makes it troublesome to get a shot at a moment\'s notice. I\'ve never really used my camera bag that much either, for similar reasons-- the strain is just so great. (Not to mention I think wearing the bags kind of make you look dinky.) But soon I might be shooting weddings with two camera bodies.
