Big Gun + Tripod rig simulator - 03-09-2010, 12:00 AM


Ever wonder if you can carry a particular cam+len+tripod combo for a hike? Want to know what it is like to have a 4/5/600mm rig on your shoulder? Or just want to get fit in prepare for your next outing?

Saw these weight bars at Target last night and first thing came to mind is a big gun + tripod training simulator (don't ask why).

Get two sticks with weight similar to cam+len (10-15lbs) & tripod+head (5lbs), tie them as a "T" and lug it around your neighborhood to find out!
