[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 368902, member: 24753"] Good news on the expecting the first one. Been there, was looking at some photos of #1 child this evening. All looks useful on the short list. The Tamrac Evolution 8 has a nice layout. Not to sure about how the sling part works. Looks like you just drop one shoulder strap. Lowepro has a couple sling bags that hang on one shoulder; disconnect a waist strap and it pulls around easy. Might compare the Tamrac and Lowepro in hand and see which seems best for you. Like the Manfrotto Pro3 055. Need one of those myself. I have never used a wrist strap on a larger camera, but always use one on a compact. Go figure. A wrist strap is going to be personal preference. The Blackrapid should be good quality. The 18-140 lens should do well for landscapes and babyscapes until used enough that you figure a reason to acquire something different. - spare battery - protective filters for each lens, especially if in dusty environment(s) (I would recommend. Many would not.) - cleaning supplies I still like the idea of one of everything. [/QUOTE]
