What gear do I use on a day to day basis when shooting:
Since my primary focus is on birds, long lenses are a must. I will typically use my camera body, one of the two above lenses , my teleconverter (on the 600) and my Black Rapid Strap. I handhold 90% of the time even for flight. I find tripods and monopods to be cumbersome and restricting. With the new mirrorless systems and lenses, handholding is the way to go...for me.
