Coyote tan GI surplus coolers will fit a 5 gallon jerry can and have a shoulder strap. That's what I've been using for my V8 'dorff and larger cameras should fit. About $20 and definitely "mil-spec"

I use a folding wagon. The front wheels swivel independently making it very maneuverable. it folds up to about 5" thick and weighs about 5 pounds. Although I usually carry only one outfit, i can carry the 8x10 outfit along with the 7x17.

I bought mine at a local hardware store. They seem to be rarely in stock at the on-line surplus stores but at least this will give you an idea of what they look like

I made a field unit of a backpack frame to which I added 12" pneumatic tires. You can wear it on your back and also take it off and pull it behind you. The frame extends at the top to serve as a pull handle. I would make a picture but right now the wheels are on my old lawnmower.
I have a MEI Trekker for my 8x10. It has been working great.

You might find a size that work nice for you. My Zone VI 8x10 goes nicely into the pack with a couple layers of closed-cell foam on each size. The 'Eurail" is another 2 inches wider if you need that with your 10x12.
The holders go in the detachable daypack...very handy. The daypack on the Trekker holds five 8x10 holders easily, another one in a pinch...and I can put another couple holders in the main pack if needed. Saves the space inside for all the other gear. I made my own dividers using closed-cell foam.
I hike for miles with it -- about 45 pounds, plus the Reis A100/!250 over the shoulder.

Here is a great cart. Goes over sand or rocks, no problem.

I've used the Tenba Car Cases and have been happy with them. The CC17 is what I used when I had the 10x12. It would hold the camera and three holders. Lenses went in a shoulder bag to give them their own space and to help balance the load.
The car cases are very minimalist, with no pouches, pockets or compartments and as such, are lightweight. They do the basic job well, but you still need to be careful hauling the camera around.
