Uhhhh-huh. I suppose the knee pads are since human kneecaps haven't evolved strong enough to support that kind of weight when kneeling?

What was he shooting to require that kind of instant readiness?

Just another example of why I see professional photography as unenviable work.

Good question.

It's probably some guy who posts regularly on dpreview.com taking a picture of his cat.

Well, that's one way to keep your sensors clean. Just mount a body to each lens so you never have to remove them

That lens on the lower left looks wracked...the damaged 400 2.8 on ebay must be his
Geez, I wouldn't want to be his spine
Noticed that all these canon cams are dangling from nikon straps ?
And really, what is it with the ferry company

Nikon Straps and Canon Lens nice combo, I might have to get me a few Nikon straps, they must be great.
