For photographers - Canon shooters
by SadElder ini'm a nature photographer and like most always seeking better, longer glass.. i'm most attracted to the 600mm f4 is canon lens though some have suggested dropping down to a 500mm due to the weight issue.
both these lenses are heavy and i can't see myself lugging either one long distances without my modified baby stroller.. any experiences with either lens?
what tripod head are you using?.

Suggestions for donations to Hurricane relief efforts
by SadElder inwe sure that your hearts, like ours, are touched by the disaster of katrina and the impact for time to come on those directly affected.
not only have these folks lost homes but many will have lost jobs as well.
there will surely by pleas for monitary help from those intent only on lining their pockets.. any experience with those who should and shouldn't be sent donations?
