BAA V-log: How to Carry a Long Lens On a Tripod. Or Not? Tons of Used Canon Gear at Great Low Prices!

What’s Up?

I now have everything I need for Macro Plan B Part II. I used the new rig to photograph wildflowers on the past two mornings but a good breeze made things challenging. Details soon. I will be headed out early today, Friday 24 JULY 2020. Thursday morning was my first photo-ride with the new SUV!

Gear Questions and Advice

Too many folks attending BAA IPTs and dozens of photographers whom I see in the field and on BPN, are–out of ignorance–using the wrong gear especially when it comes to tripods and more especially, tripod heads… Please know that I am always glad to answer your gear questions via e-mail. Those questions might deal with systems, camera bodies, accessories, and/or lens choices and decisions.

How to Carry a Long Lens On a Tripod. Or Not?

When walking long distances, I suggest that carrying your super-telephoto lens in one hand and your tripod in the other is best for long-term shoulder health. In this 15-minute video, I show you the best way to carry your tripod-mounted big lens on your shoulder while minimizing the damage to your shoulders.

We demonstrate the technique using the best tripod heads known to mankind.

You will also learn why I have been using and loving my super-sturdy, very tall Gitzo 404L more and more when I am working close to my vehicle …

As promised in the video, here are the weights of each of those heads:

FlexShooter Mini: 1 lb., 1.5 ozs. Ideal for the intermediate telephoto lenses that we all love.

FlexShooter Pro: 1 lb, 8.9 ozs. The new standard. A versatile ballhead that acts like a gimbal head.

Levered Clamp FlexShooter Pro: 1 lb., 9.9 ozs. As above, but perfect for folks with weak hands and fingers.

FlexShooter Extreme: 2 lbs., 9 ozs. The perfect FlexShooter head for those needing maximum rigidity.

Wimberley V-2 Head: 3 lbs., 3.4 ozs. Preferred by old school folks who want the ability to almost completely lock down their head. I say “almost completely” because their is always some play in every long lens rig no matter the head.

Original Wimberley Head: 4 lbs., 2.6 oz. As above but taller. Ideal in situations where you need your lens as high as possible. Two used available. Cheap. Please inquire.

The Mongoose 3.6.1 Action Head: 1 lb., 6.1 ozs. I used and depended on this head for more than a decade with great success. It is not as versatile as a FlexShooter heads. It cannot be used to mount a camera body with a short lens and cannot be used from a vehicle. IAC, I can’t believe that I left the Mongoose out of the video. You would carry it as detailed in the video.

Questions?

If you have a question on tripods, tripod heads, or carrying a big tripod-mounted lens in the field, please leave a comment below.

Induro Tripods

Please understand that Gitzo went down the drain about five years ago. If you need advice as to the best tripod for you, please shoot me an e-mail and include your height and info on your longest lens. And please, please, pretty please purchase your Induro tripod here and only here. Many tanks!

The Levered-Clamp FlexShooter Pro

The Levered-Clamp FlexShooter Pro is now sold out. We will be getting our second shipment next week. If your fingers are not as strong as they used to be, it is recommended that you place a phone order (863-692-0906) now to ensure getting one from our that shipment; your card will not be charged until your head is shipped.

Selling Your Used Photo Gear Through BIRDS AS ART

Selling your used (or like-new) photo gear through the BAA Blog is a great idea. We charge only a 5% commission. One of the more popular used gear for sale sites charged a minimum of 20%. Plus assorted fees! Yikes. They went out of business. And e-Bay fees are now up to 13%. Please understand that e-Bay prices are bogus. And the same is true of the prices of used gear including my dear friends at B&H and the other mega-outfits. They offer you pennies and then try to sell the stuff to ignorant folks for ridiculously high prices. With their huge international exposure, they occasionally find someone …

The minimum item price here is $500 (or less for a $25 fee). If you are interested please shoot us an e-mail with the words Items for Sale Info Request cut and pasted into the Subject line :). Stuff that is priced fairly — I offer pricing advice to those who agree to the terms — usually sells. With the pandemic and the down economy, the market had been somewhat depressed, but sales have been brisk for the past few weeks. And over the past year, we have sold many many hundreds of items. Do know that prices the used prices of many items have been dropping steadily. The prices garnered for used Canon gear has tanked completely as demand has dropped tremendously. It is ironic that for decades Canon gear had very strong resale value … Recently, however, the Canon used gear market has shown some signs of life. Prices on used Nikon gear have also dropped as well. You can see all the current bargains here on the Used Gear Page.

Note: all BAA Used Gear sales include insured ground shipping via UPS to lower 48 US addresses only. Others who live elsewhere are invited to e-mail the seller for shipping surcharge info. Sellers should charge you only the difference between shipping to the farthest US location from their home and the charge to a non-lower-48 address.

Please contact Charlie via e-mail or by phone at 1-407-448-7797 (Eastern time zone).

The 11-24 is a truly versatile ultra wide-angle zoom lens that features an advanced optical design and constant f/4 maximum aperture. It is a member of the esteemed L-series of lenses designed for full-frame EOS DSLRs. One Super UD element and one UD element offer a significant reduction in chromatic aberration while four aspherical elements help to minimize distortion throughout the zoom range and provide consistent edge-to-edge sharpness. Both SWC and ASC coatings have been applied to the elements in order to reduce lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color accuracy. Ideally suited for landscape and architectural photography, this lens covers ultra-wide to wide-angle perspectives and backs up its versatile zoom range with sophisticated optical components and intuitive handling. The lens is both water and dust-resistant, and fluorine coatings have also been applied to the front and rear elements to protect against fingerprints and smudges from affecting image quality. I loved my Canon 11-24 especially for huge stormy skies. artie & B&H

The 500mm f/4 lenses have been the world’s most popular telephoto lenses for birds, nature, wildlife, and sports for many decades. I owned and used and loved my “old five” for many years. If you use Canon and don’t have the cash for a 500 II and can handle the additional 1 1/2 pounds, then this is your best super-telephoto option. Most everyone can produce sharp images with this lens and a 1.4X TC. Folks with good to excellent sharpness techniques can do the same with a 2X TC. A new 500 II sells right now for $8,999.00 so you can save an amazing $6,651.00 by grabbing Bob’s original version 500mm f/4 IS lens (the “old five”) right now. artie

10 comments to BAA V-log: How to Carry a Long Lens On a Tripod. Or Not? Tons of Used Canon Gear at Great Low Prices!

  • Steve

    Artie, could you explain why you think Ebay prices are “bogus”?

    • Arthur Morris/BIRDS AS ART

      Hi Steve,

      Here is one example: I just did a search on eBay for a Canon EOS-1DX Mark II. There were many. The last two sold on the BAA Used Gear page for $2798.00 and $2698.00. On eBay, there is one with less than 1700 actuations listed for $1700.00. With zero bids. There are about 50 listed for somewhere between $3,000 and $4,499.00. About 15 of those are listed for more than $4,000.00.

      Now refine your search by checking the box for Completed Items. “eBay Completed Listings are listings that have run their course and ended either with a sale or as unsold. … Before listing items on eBay, and to get the most money for an item you are selling, it is a good practice to research completed listings and price accordingly.”

      There are at least 60 bodies — I gave up counting — listed as Completed Items. The prices range from $1900.00 to a high of $4299.00. Oh, and there is one listed for 99 cents. Of interest is one listed for $3250.00 with 15 bids as high as $2375.00. The listing was removed. About half of the completed listings showed zero bids.

      Now refine your search to Sold. The first listing is one that supposedly sold for $3,312.00 on July 24, 2020. I say supposedly because the exact same camera had been listed for several days for $1700 (with zero bids). Another was listed as sold on May 20 for US $4,050.00 while just below that one was listed as sold for $1700.00 just two days before …

      Does anything seem fishy to you?

  • Hi Guru. Canon itself has lowered the prices of its EF lenses considerably. They have proudly announced that they are placing all the emphasis on mirrorless systems. I have never heard of a brand relinquishing its top position in the market in lieu of an indefinite future. More so when a giant like Sony is calling the shots on that turf.

    However, as per the observers; Sony is miles ahead in that area. IMO, Canon and Nikon will never be able to catch up.

    In the mean time, Pentax has announced that they will stick to development of DSLRs. May be they will build up a niche for their models soon.

    It seems both DSLRs and mirrorless might coexist for the foreseeable future. Therefore, quitting one of these might not be a wise move. What do u say Guru?

    Best regards.

  • Adam

    Brilliant video and as a physician, I can attest to the cumulative effects of traditional loading on the rotator cuff. Sure, a buff, twenty-something year old can get away with it, but the effects are devastating for those of us who are 50+ . Appreciated the comedic element of the garbage truck and it gave me a well needed chuckle. My Flexshooter Pro is on the way and am anxious to give it a whirl.

    • Arthur Morris/BIRDS AS ART

      Thanks, Adam. Folks who photograph once a month can probably handle it but several days a week for two or three decades can be brutal …

      with love, artie

  • Artie,

    Thanks for the video explaining how you carry a large telephoto lens when you have to walk a fair distance. It was very helpful.

    I enjoyed seeing that Murphy’s Law of nature, anything that can go wrong will go wrong, effects someone else besides me. The garbage truck segment in the middle of the video was priceless.

    Best Regards,
    Ivan

  • ChicagoJeff

    Artie – Another great instructional video. Check out the Sony article here.

    In part: From the Associated Press:

    Sony Electronics Inc., a global leader in imaging, and The Associated Press, the trusted global news organization, announced today a new collaboration that will make Sony the exclusive imaging products and support provider for AP news photographers and video journalists around the world.

    • Arthur Morris/BIRDS AS ART

      Thanks, CJ. Sounds like a great gig if you can get it. I am working hard to try and become a SONY Artisan …

      with love, a

      ps: glad that you liked the video!
