i think canon should devise something like a hot air balloon to hold these heavy white primes so the users can easily hold the lens and use them, you know, something to think about i always find it annoying carrying those heavy tripods around!

A balloon would catch the wind, but perhaps a heavy-lift drone, tethered to the lens, programmed to resist/counter-act the influence of the wind?

I wear a badge and pistol, and make evidentiary images at night, which incorporates elements of portrait, macro, still life, landscape, architecture, and PJ. I enjoy using both Canons and Nikons.
