Hello All,
As you may know I have aqcuired a 400mmf2.8 and love it to bits, but I am having trouble with BIF, specially when I am on foot lugging that beast around. With the 300mmf4 and TC it was a breeze.!!!
Can somebody enlighten me as to technique etc for monster lenses and BIF, Tripod or monopod, ballhead or Wimberley??? Is there a technique for handholding a beast like a 400+?? or is the answer simply to leave the 400 at home and use the 300 and TC on my walkabouts, almost reserve the 400 for shooting from a hide or inside the car?
Would love to hear your comments.
Regards,
Leon
