Camo Covers for 100-400

[Sadlybrokeboy]

Hey guys,

Have seen alot the 'big' lenses with Camo sleeves on them. Was wondering whether you can get them for the 100-400? And if so can anyone recommend any suppliers/makes?

Many thanks,

Matt

+1 for the stealth wildlife ones, i had a wildlife watching supplies one when i had my 100-400 and didnt like it. Kept slipping round the lens and it was quite bulky because of the way they sew the seams. Ive got the stealth wildlife one for my 120-300mm and its far better. Our local LCE stocks a lot of the stuff so you can see it.

Very happy with my "Camo Mac".
I asked them to make one with the soft waterproof fabric and elasticated both ends to fit just a lens. (100-400 and 400f5.6)
They were happy to oblige and it was made and delivered within 3-4 days.

This is the seller/manufacturer (though I had them make me something different from what is pictured).

Wouldn't the 100-400 be hard to cover due to its push-pull nature? Surely any cover would impede the mechnism.

Surely any cover would impede the mechnism.

You'd think so but in practise I find that I'm often at the long end much of the time (e.g. birds); in addition, the waterproof fabric is both fine and rustle-free and crumples readily when zooming.

So, not an issue for me and the bright white of this 'L' lens body is nicely camo'd.
