    Camera backpack recommendations please

    most backpacks will allow you to mount the tripod in the centre at the back (even those with side mounting facilities) problem is that it ends up swinging around way behind you (if you have a large and heavy tripod - and there's no such thing as a light and sturdy support) I'd advise you to...

    every branch I have dealt with has been superb great bunch of people I'm sure that most if not all on here will recognise the value of bricks and mortar stores and I encourage all to support them thanks Dave

    Canon Zoom

    the glass is hard up at the back of the lens on the RF 70-200 If the OP is using a 1Dx then it needs to be EF glass and in that case I would steer clear of the mk1 100-400 and go for one of the primes for the best IQ the 300 has a wider max aperture, the 400 goes longer depends how close to...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    I did pick a roll of this up (on eBay IIRC) and had it stuck to the lens - worked like a charm - protecting the lens well and making me invisible to critters However I'd left a few wrinkles in the wrap around the curvy parts of the hood and removed it (no problem there as advertised) thinking...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    I've just bought this for my lens TBH I don't think all of it will stay on the cover for the extending part is good as long as you want to shot at 500mm and not zoom - it does stop the barrel retracting (as you would expect) but all of the rings make using the lens a bit of a bu88er I reckon...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Thanks for replying - under advisement I think I'll stick to the 100-500 - I'm off to Mull next week and believe that I'll need to stop down anyway to get a whole eagle in focus - the 100-500 maxes at 5.6 at 300 anyway and the zoom may well come in handy too Dave

    I have the 100-500 too - but hanker after the f4 thing at 300mm (and having a 420 5.6 available from my pocket)- which lens do you find gets the best images at 300mm? - you seem to indicate that you use the 300 more than the zoom Thanks Dave

    Shimoda alternatives

    I have 4 Shimoda bags and 3 f stop ones and I would not consider any for a long hike personally not when I have an Osprey bag and a BYOB insert I too have a Kamber but prefer the Stratos and similar with the suspended backs Dave
