Interesting equipment for nature photography

[mygos]

I really started nature photography last year in march when I purchased a Canon 70D camera following comments on this thread :
collector-secret.proboards.com/thread/411/equipment-recommend-butterflies-photography

I then bought a 100 mm macro lens and recently a 100-400 mm zoom from Canon

At the same time I purchased 2 other piece of equipment which have proved very successfull :

Number one is a Segway x2 SE that proved unrivalled to, approach reptiles as they can't here you coming (no vibration on the ground), go quickly after a butterfly flying or travel long distances in the search of insects, birds or so ... www.segway.com/ 
Number two is a CCS Camera Harness-2, which helps carying my camera without having a bad neck at the end (especially with my new zoom)  www.cottoncarrier.com/collections/camera-vests/products/ccs-camera-vest-2
I can take pictures using both in the same time







I have to admit that the Segway is a must but the price is quite formidable

@olivier : next time you visit me, we will be able to scour the countryside more easily ...

Nice camera and lens but not sure about the two wheeled things.

You'll have to buy a helmet too then I am pretty sure I would crash every 2 meters !

I'd love to see the sort of reaction I'd get if I tried using a segway around here.

Hi Tom, I leave in the country in a small village and the first time I went to the center, everybody were looking at me in a strange way

"CCS Camera Harness-2, which helps carying my camera without having a bad neck at the end"

The "bad neck", I know very well ! The harness seems very useful. Not too hot in tropical countries ?

I have not tried it yet in tropical climate, but it should not be too bad, and there will be more benefits than disadvantages
