I have 2 very long, heavy lenses, both Tamron.
My problem in one of vibration due to wind as the tripod still only mounts under the camera body!
Can anyone point me to a 'master-class' or good home-made, but permanent, lens mount that I can make/adapt for use on these lenses?
If I can just bring the balance point closer to the middle I know I can remove most, if not all of the vibrations from wind as such elements as are causing it.
Sometimes I can use my sandbag, but many times it is not possible or convenient!
Thanks if anyone can help me with this very damning problem. |
