Hi -

What are you all using for the 70-200 f/4 L ?

Looking for a neoprene case; not a hard case.

Thanks

Will you be using this to put the lens in a backpack for example? If so, I use a Domke wrap instead of a neoprene case so that it can be used to any of my equipment.

Yes; good idea. Thanks

Thanks Jim - Got a Snootboot with my Canon 70-200/4 but it seems overly large.

Have an Altura Lens pouch from Amazon coming in. If that doesn't work I may try a wrap.

Need some protection while it's in my back pack.

Best -

I use the Ape Case ACLC12. Pretty good for the price IMO. It fits my 70-200 f/4 L (non-IS) snug. My only complaint is the lens hood doesn’t fit. Works great in my backpack, which is exactly where it is right now.

The large size on Amazon. Right under $14.

Happy to report that the Altura extra-large in the 4-pack (Amazon) will take the lens with the hood reversed and The Sigma MC-11 attached.

I really like my Think Tank Lens Case Duo 40 × 1

I will easily hold a 70-200/4 or 2.8 flavor. I can also squeeze in the 100-400 in a pinch.
I like the zippered access and the detachable strap. I can throw it over my shoulder and go shooting with one bigger lens at the ready.

Looks really nice.

Just to be a PITA, but why do you need a case? If I'm out moving it's either on the cam or in the lens belt. If I'm traveling, it's in a carry-on style shoulder bag. Not sure what's to be gained. And yes, I've gone down. Comes with the job. The halfback shoved out of bounds hurt pretty bad, but I tucked and rolled. The camera/lens was fine.

Was incredibly embarrassing. The head ref stopped the game to make sure I was okay. The kid was almost crying. All the next week folks about town asked if I was okay. Guess I've become something of an institution. Not what I had in mind.
