p.1 #3 · Who's gettin' LensSkins for your Canon lenses ?
I seen a girl with one at the park one day. I was shooting senior photos. Well, within 10 minutes of finishing up, I decided to walk the park after the client left.
It must have been announced on public access "if you own a camera go to the park". No less than 20 people, who weren't associated with each other show up.
I know they weren't with the local photography group, since I'm one of the officers.
Well anyway, the one girl had a Nikon body with grip, and a "longish" (guessing 80-200 /70-200) with some blue floral paisley shit on it. It looked like Vera bradley ate some optics and a purse and shit out a lens.

Yes get one for every lens you own just to keep all the observers guessing as to what the heck you are shooting with.
That's it. I am sure Ontario "birders" will love to see me shoot in their company with my 800L all nicely decked up in its new lensskin.
Some time ago there was that Ontario birder shooting some slow swiming/drifting ducks with 1DMkIII and 400 f/5.6, at 10 FPS with hardly a break. Tickatackaaaaaa....to no end.
His attire as well as his gear was all camo.
He then complained that my red/black checkered jacket was spooking the ducks.
In reality, ducks didn't give a $hit about us or our clothing as long as we kept our distance.

What? Nothing for the 24 TS-E II?
After the initial shock, those do look seriously cool. The leather verison seems interesting, as do a few others. I can see this as a quick way to distiguish most-used lenses. That "carnival" is kind of growing on me for my 24-70L! I'd probably spring for a deep blue/green ocean color.

Ohhhhh Preeety... Okay maybe not but I guess there has to be a market. I can now say there is something on the B&H website that I DON'T need to buy.... just leave 400,000 other things :-/

How dare you bring a sensible question in here.
@gary how often do you redo that. Gaffers tape breaks down over time and can lead to a fine powder...I thought about doing it, but I don't want to deal with a mess. We need invisible shield clones for lenses
