OK, so I know this is a bit of a plug for F-Stop but I think I’ve given this particular case a good test. A week and a half ago, I went out to Echo, Utah to shoot a BASE jump with my roomate, Max Kuszaj. I shot the jump with 2 cameras, one locked of on a tripod tight on the exit point and the other a bit wider, handheld. So I finished up with the shoot and decided to take a few photos of the Double Barrel lens case that my 100-400 was in cause I thought it might look cool, just for grins. I finished, put my camera away in my pack and walked back to my car and drove off. It wasn’t until 2 days ago when I realized I didn’t have the lens. I drove back yesterday to see if it was there and fortunately since I left it in a meadow away from the trail it was still there, standing up right where I left it. At least 2 thunderstorms rolled through, possibly more in the week and a half it was sitting out there in the meadow and the lens was fine. Pretty happy about finding the lens, and finding it in good condition. Anyways, here’s to good gear!
Glad to have luck and good gear

Hooolllleee sheeatt Seo..
I once forgot my strobe pack.. for about 5 minutes.
Definitely lost 2 $600.00 fisheyes on urban missions too. 2 in two years.. I’m on a roll. Crap.
Thats scary.
Damn, that’s crazy!!
So far i’ve left a $160 tripod twice on the same trip… Once was at crankworx shooting the Air DH. I moved on to another spot, got there and wondered where my other tripd was. Then I realized it was up the trail.
The second time on that trip, I left it at a dirt jump park in Washington when we had to get everything out out the rain suddenly. We went back and it was still standing.
