When I'm working, naturally the camera I shoot the most with is on my right side, so I keep this going when I go out. If I'm out with two bodies, the d3/telephoto tends to stay on the right side while the D800/14-24 is on the left. A lot of the time I only have one camera with me and it'll be on the right side, so that camera will have a matching lens (telephoto for birds, wide for landscape, etc). In your case, I'd really just bring out a single camera if it's for fun. If I was using both to shoot wildlife, I'd have the d800 with 80-400 on the right (dominant side) and the D700 with the 50 prime or maybe the 24 (I like wide shots).  IF it was just walkaround photography, I'd have the single d800 with the 50 if I was traveling light, or the 80-400 if you want to be a little heavier but capture whatever comes your way. You could honestly just bring a telephoto(I use the 70-200 most of the time) and shoot flowers/birds/whatever you like. IT comes down to personal preference, and I usually only bring out two cameras if it's a wedding or something. Otherwise the second body really gets in the way of your fun in my opinion. Go out with both cameras, one wider and one telephoto and see which one you use more often. Then I'd stick with just that one and keep the other in your backpack with the opposite lens on it.</blockquote>
