what is this?
You joke but a bit of flash is handy for up close to the managers in the dugout before kickoff. A tight headshot can look really flat otherwise.

Lifetime guarantee from Peli so you'll be okay if you did break it.

Peli 1510 with organiser or Tamrac expo7 (Ta Gary
) which depends on footy ground, (bloody stairs!), + a shakespeare (fishing) seat/bag combie that houses all my waterproofs & lens/camera covers etc! also a Seaport pro shoulder bag for all Laptop/electical stuff. Yes it weighs a bit but I'm getting stronger & I'm totally covered!! erm I hope 
.
And to answer Nigels original thread!, I balance the Tele over my L shoulder while bringing the zoom up from around my neck, so to reverse, just let the zoom down & use the shoulder to flick the tele back up to position (takes practise but I find it works for me). Also with the zoom round your neck it's available while viewing/transmitting images if goal mouth action creeps up on you!,
(most/all printed action outside the Premier is "goal cele/shot for goal action" which unless your prepared is very missable by the time you've secured the long Tom!!). Kind regards Graham.

My technique is not to have a 400m, just take a good old trusty siggy 70-200 and miss out on anything too far away and twiddle my thumbs

That's what I have to do in the 2nd half when the natural light goes. The floodlights are that bad I can only use the 1Dx and the 70-200 f2.8 to get a decent shot. Even then I have to shoot at ISO 51200 to get 1/1000 shutter speed
The 7D stands no chance, so gets put way with the 400 f2.8 for the second half.
At least I dont have to bob between two cameras though

Dragging this old thread up
Picking the 400mm up tomorrow and have ordered a Giottos MML3290B 5-Section Monopod as mine current one is okay for the new 300, but the 400 weighs heck of a lot more.
So I'll practice the Coyle method in due course
