Reasons for carrying 2 DSLRs, vs 1?
1 day ago
  1. Having 2 zooms w. different focal lengths & being able to switch quickly between them.
  2. Backup, in case one body is out of action (accident, malfunction, and a professional cleaning for the inept).
  3. If you have cropped & FF bodies, 2 different focal length ranges.

Am I missing anything?  Realize the disadvantages are cost of the 2nd body + accessories, and additional weight.
