Replacement of 16-35 II L = 16-35 III LIn my opinion we need a fast replacement for the 17-40L and 16-35 II L with an image quality like the 24-70 II L.
And that would be 12(14)-24 f/2.8?
12(14)-24 f/2.8 = new lens (welcome of course but still new lens, not a replacement)
I use a BR strap with a 1D X and heavy lenses (including a 600/4 II).Thanks neuro. Though I am not charmed of the dual holster. The BR yeti (one shoulder strap but able to carry 2 cameras) is a preferred solution. I just don't know wether it can hold my gear. And how good it is secured (for example with built-in steel strap)
You might also consider a dual Spider Holster. I use a single one (on a Lowepro belt) with the 1D X and a white zoom (70-200/2.8, 28-300, 100-400), works very well.
All my carriers are set up for Arca Swiss plates (which are on my camera/lenses). For the BR straps, I use a Kirk 1" clamp on the lugs, and I have the Spider Arca Clamp.
I believe Neuro uses the BR with IDx, etc. I have a BR -- love it! YMMV.
Another option would be cotton carrier: http://www.cottoncarrier.com
Just depends on what works for you
I have a black rapid for a gripped 7d and I love it. I mainly use it while hiking. It works great even with large lenses like the 100-400. That said if you are going to carry two cameras, and thus won't have you hand in both bodies all the time sun sniper makes a similar strap with a steel wire braided in. Something like this
