Thanks Ken.
I'll look up the specs on these to determine the size of safe he needs built or his car. The job right now is to determine the safe volume of a reasonable set of lenses and camera with cases.

In Miami, they even see you putting that in the trunk safe and they shoot you and steal the car. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I suppose I shouldn't say this, but all my gear just lives in the back of my SUV all the time. I have a cool rolling case that locks, and I occasionally remember to put everything back inside and lock it up, but mostly I need my cameras to be quickly and easily accessible. That said, I work on a college campus and live in a small, safe city. And it's mostly not my gear <grin>. If I had to work in Miami, I would choose a different occupation.

For carrying all that gear, ThinkTank Photo makes cases and backpacks aimed at working photojournalists. They have some cool stuff that I would highly recommend.
