I'm looking for a smallish leather camera case with a detachable shoulder strap. I'd wear this when my large Podzilla shoulder bag is not convenient.
It should look classy. I would want to be able wear it when I'm in my formal suit.
It should be small enough to be carried under a polar fleece half-zip without buldging too much. It should also be large enough to hold a some "essentials": a CMG Infinity Ultra, Princeton Tec Blast, Victorinox Mdnite MiniChamp II, Mini- Bic, and a few first aid items.
Any suggestions?

Modify a nylon shoulder holster rig.
With casual, wear it exposed, with formal, wear it concealed.

You might try a leather PDA case. That's what I use for my EDC kit here in Silicon Valley where a Leatherman on your belt will raise eyebrows but nobody even notices a PDA. Check out: http://www.pdaskins.com/products_dd.htmlI have both the PDA Plus and the PDA Pro Phone. The PDA Plus has my EDC kit and the PDA Pro Phone has my toolkit. The phone pocket fits even a large multi tool. They hold a fair amount and come with both a belt clip and detachable shoulder strap.

You're quite welcome. As a longtime Indy fan, I spent several hours reading about the bags, hats, grail diaries etc, on the above site. This is the bag that most of the people who dress up as Indy get: http://whatpriceglory.com/mkviibag.html. Kinda halfway between the tactical look of Maxpedition and the classic expedition Filson stuff. Although I'd add an extra pocket or two to the outside to emphasize that it's not a man-purse! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Looks great, but what I'm looking for has to look good with both jeans and a sweater as well as khakis and a blazer. Gotta cover both worlds.
