Probably not the smartest idea from a protection standpoint.<< If you mean protection from moisture (as in sweat) that's a problem for me too. I rode a century with my M6 in my jersey pocket, and I think that was worse on the body and lens than if I'd spent a day at the beach battling sea spray. I can't carry anything against my body when I ride. I do all types of outdoor sports, winter and summer, and cycling is one of the most difficult to get right in terms of attire (i.e. what to wear and how to layer). The Ortlieb bag sounds interesting. So you carried a 4X5 on your bike? And a Ries tripod? I'm impressed, and a little envious :). Dave
