25.4 - Buried Camera

#4: Buried Camera

I take fewer pictures when my camera is tucked away in its case and buried in my backpack.

My camera is now readily accessible.

My Crumpler bag can be both an easily accessible shoulder bag, and a backpack when I'm hiking or pedaling along.

All I have to do is pull open a hook-and-loop secured flap, and my camera is waiting for me to grab.
