    Canon RF 100-300mm f/2.8L IS USM next from Canon

    Glad you posted this- I feel the same way. I just don't see this lens at this price point as something I would want. Another consideration is weight. When going on the plane, there is a weight limit, which means we must limit what we can bring. For me, it is always what I have to leave...

    Travel tripods and the best light weight gimbal head?

    I don't think it is a "ripoff". I have the Peak Design tripod and don't like it because it is very flimsy. This tripod seems rather a next generation in the tripod's evolution. I purchased one and hopefully, it will be as stable as promised.
