With the FZ1000, you won't need any extra lenses. The shoulder pod is light and when folded, very small. It has a loop on it so you can attach it to something, like a cord. It would fit in a reasonably sized pocket. Do you have a fisherman's/photographer's jacket that lots of pockets inside and out? That would allow easy storage for smaller items.</p></blockquote><p></p>
