Howe are you carry your 50-500 or 80-40?

Hello

Howe are you carry your 50-500 or 80-40, or any other big lens
Do you hold him on the camera or on the lens?

When you hold him on the camera is there not to much tension between the camera and the lens.

Greet,
Rob

With the 50-500, if you carry it, it's by the lens. The camera weighs less than the lens; carrying the combo by the camera body places more stress on the lens mount. I use the tripod handle as a carrying handle.

--Rob i have the sigma.
It has a great tripod collar.
With that collar it is also good to carry the camera and lense
But its handhold.
Sigma also supplies a strap wich you can attach to the lense.
So you can carry the lense and camera over your shoulder.

Hi Alex,

I have the 50-500 also, I am a little bit afraid that there is to match tension between the lens and the camera when you carry this combo on the camera only.
