  I have several of the soft insulated lunch
boxes for my various cameras. Sam, you saw the
purple on I use for the SR225. The main compartment
has room for the twin TLR and my little note
book. The pouch on the front has room for my
Polaris light meter, pen, cable release and
lens shades.

  What more could you want. :)

  I think I paid $8 CDN or so at Superstore
(grocery store).

  They have the advantage (I hope ) of
reduced theft potential if I happen to
leave it sitting in my car for example.
