Just moved into a D200 from my beloved D70 (its all Warren's fault...) It came in on Wed - just in time for my long weekend in the Sierras, shooting Opening Day of the trout season! Amazing. Love the cam. Took about 400 shots this weekend and I'm getting in the groove with this cam.
My Ike housing just rolled in today with the 8" dome. I've been shooting the 6" domes for my 12-24 and 10.5 lenses, and decided to move to dah biggah dome. Depending on the performance and handling of the big dome, I'll likely sell off my others.
HOWEVER - I can see this thing seriously changing the balance of my rig with all that air and plastic. Does it make the rig seriously front heavy? I did a search using SB's bogus search engine, got about 7 pages deep and couldn't find my answer....
SO -
Do any of you find yourself re-weighting the rig when you use the big dome? If so, how do you do it? Zip tie a 1 pound block weight? Tie on a 1 pound pouch? Hang about 30 hose weights from the dome? (that one's for you, Peter....)
I'm taking it all out for the first time this weekend - I'd love to know what you do as I'll be far from home.
Thanks
