If we could get the Peli's and the 'big whites' lighter, now that would be a real weight saving - perhaps Canon's DO is the future?

My lumbering old MBP 2008 fits the bill, I can't see, aside from a little weight saving, what this gives you, especially captioning, live uploading etc...

Never tried, how do you tether to an iPad?

Wex have them http://www.wexphotographic.com/camera-protection-lenscoats/b3055-m147

Missed that one, at 400 the 5.6 will be fine, of course it depends on your lighting.

Was thinking about reach, as a 1.4x is undesirable on top of an f/4 lens.

I just don't think you'll find it that bad, if you're full frame, those bright wintery days make for some cracking shots.

You may find it a little short then, but it's a cheaper alternative to the 2.8 version and a good start.

If you're prepared to travel, Derby Velodrome has a pathway around the circuit, which I think is unrestricted. I'm not sure of their shooting policies, nor of the competitions held there. The Sky Team did some training prior to the Olympics.

Are you on a crop body? The 300mm f/4 is still a viable lens.

I came to this forum searching for help on this topic. Shooting Championship rugby is easy, but national league teams is a lot more difficult, including some teams who can't be bothered to produce a team sheet. I've gone down the road of photographing the face and adding a voice note.
