I should also mention about the big prime in that 35L bag...so I have the 500 f4 mk ii, and it fits in there with it's lens hood. The RF 600 f4, while the same length and weight as the 500 mk ii, has a much larger front aperture, because physics. So while it will fit in the bag as I have it setup, the lens hood will not fit in there in any way. So you'd either have to put the hood in your checked bag, get a bigger carry-on bag for it, or get something like the lenscoat travel hood for it.
600 is nearly 100mm longer than the 500.
I see you pack the 500mm with the 1.4x extender on it. Does the setup not fit with the RF to EF adapter also installed on it?? Thanks.
@@jefferyrobbins3468 It does, I just usually leave the adapter on the camera because I use my ef 16-35 a lot still right now.
Good timing - we are headed to Normandy, FR and then Germany for a few weeks and my camera area is in similar disarray as I sift through what I'm taking. We've been to Europe many times and I've selected bags that fit within the regional/international flights overhead compartments, which are generally smaller than their counterparts in the US or the bigger jets that fly over the pond. You hit on an important point - adaptability/flexibility with what you where / how the bags can be configured. Hope your trip is/was epic!
Hope your Scotland workshop is a blast. Just returned first of May, and visited the Isle of May and Edinburgh. Puffins Rock, but so do Razor Bills and all the other cool birds. Used Tamron 100-400 for Nikon on my Z7 on the Isle of May and it was good overall. Needed some support, I'm over age 70, and wasn't prepared. Looking forward to what you share.
Oh nice! That's awesome that you you got to go! I've been keeping tabs on the Isle of May's bird research blog and am definitely stoked to get out there!
Thanks can’t wait to see how you get on I was up there a couple of weeks ago visiting my dear much loved auntie. Back in January it’s a 10 hour drive but We will stop halfway visit my auntie. And then plan to have five days in nethy bridge. Main target red squirrel crested tit. Good luck. 👍
Suggest getting rig of the Canon lens cover on your 500mm and getting a Zemlin lens cover. Good space save and much better way to protect the lens. I use one on my 600mm. I use that and a Lenscoat Travelcoat when traveling.
Best advice if going long-haul - fly business class. Never have issues with baggage again.
That Bosque workshop sounds very tempting...
welcome to scotland never been even though im 4 hours away i cant wait to see the amazing photos you be taking have a wonderful time in scotland
Great Video
I've been looking for a proper backpack and packing ideas to get my longer lenses around for various photo opportunities
Timing is great for me
Thanks for sharing
You bet man, I'm glad it helped!
Brent, I always love your videos. the camera lessons are awesome plus the hands on practical knowledge are so beneficial. you had asked for comments and i always have a ? my comment is i pack similar to you; but i put my small lens or extenders in small draw string bags. a little added protection plus i can carry them on my belt show the situation arise. my ? why aren't you carrying the 1.4. for such a little weight and space i think you gain a lot. thanks for another great video. .
Thanks Erick! The 1.4 is on my 500. 😁
I noticed a lack of padding between some equipment in the camera bag. Is there a risk of traveling and hiking with lenses and drones right up against camera bodies?
I've never had any issues, but I'm also not really worried about that kind of stuff.
Brent, the most important thing to take is some form of insect repellent to ward off the midges !! The little monsters will eat you alive if you go unprepared.
Brent, do not miss a trip to Glen Coe, it's a photographers dream for landscapes, also I highly recommend Glen Lyon and Skye.
Midges are Immune to that stuff lolol
@@colintraveller The midges don't like Avon skin so soft 👍.
I hope you make the time to visit the River Clyde , Holy Loch , Loch Long , Striven and Arran
I got bitten by something out taking photos in landscape and I ended up in hospital with sepsis after getting biten by various bugs.
Haven't seen a single midge out here, but that's why I go to the east coast in the summer. I don't think I'll ever visit Glencoe or anywhere on the west coast during the summer, way too many bugs and tourists out there! 😜
It's just like here in Newfoundland, without the castles.😅
I really want to get up there too!
Great see how you pack and even better to see we have the same bags with both the Shimoda 25 & 35lt and Ulanzi tripod
👌Glad you enjoy your Scottish trips, I’m lucky enough to live in the Cairngorms
❤
Oh nice! And that's awesome, you live in an incredible area!
I can’t be a year since your last Scotland trip!? Happy that you and camera lady are coming back to my side of the pond. Have a fabulous trip, hope the weather behaves for you both. Looking forward as always to your work. Phil AKA keepclickingphotography
Same, I can't believe it's been a year already! So, we just got in last night and went for a sunset walk. It was perfect. This morning I got up with the sun...at 4 am, lol, and went for a walk. Sky was on fire...sprinted back in and grabbed the camera. Gout out just in time for a perfect rainbow over the sea cliffs and epic light with blooming flowers...it was incredible. Filmed a very impromptu vlog real quick, so hopefully that will be either the first or part of the first episode here.
Good to know the Shimoda Explore 35 liter fits under the seats. I have the large core unit in my 35 liter and it pretty much holds all of my gear. If we need a second carry on, my wife can take our Shimoda Urban Explore 25 liter for any overflow needs. Other then that, we pack/check a large duffel or suitcase, depending on the destination, for the rest of our stuff. Have a great trip!
Yeah, I was very relieved when it "fit" under the seat, especially with my 500mm in there. While it does fit, it's tight and takes up your leg room, but still worth it for me personally.
Any recommendation for a good travel size/lightweight Tripod?
Quite a few actually. I made a whole video about it recently.
th-cam.com/video/dJx3O2eYXkk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=4Cd7EiiQ3VML3qv7
What is the weight of your carry on bags? We are heading to Australia and QF limits are 14# for on roll along or 20# total for 2 carry on duffles or bags.
It was more than that, lol. I just hope no one weighs it. But that's why I have the shimoda core carrying case thingy in the video, and the extra little PD packable tote, and lastly, my jacket with big pockets. If they ever weigh it for smaller planes especially, then I have options for pulling some weight out without having to check anything, hopefully.
Thank you very much, this is a big help!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Very wet here in Scotland at the moment.
This is a great comment because it is always true, no matter when you read it.
It's absolutely wonderful! Especially since it hasn't rained where I live all year.
Enjoy
I most definitely will!
Insect repellent! Don't forget the insect repellent. 🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟😁
I don't really need it over on the east coast of Scotland. There aren't any midges out here! Which is why I never visit the west coast of Skye during the summer...well that and tourists😜
