Don Bender replied to PSPhotoContest's discussion Scenes with Mist or Fog - October 2011 Final Voting in the group Monthly Photo ContestDon Bender replied to Don Bender's discussion Rain covers in the group Canon User Group"Thanks so much for your insight Richard. I have a professional photographer friend who asked me what kind of camera I used. When I told him the Canon 1D Mark III and a 5D Mark II, he told me not to worry about a cover.

Alan Ang replied to Don Bender's discussion Rain covers in the group Canon User Group"I bring along a shower cap ( the one that you can find in hotel). If it sudden rain, just slip the shower cap over the camera. The purpose is to protect your horse shoe from contact to rain and cause a short circuit."
Stephen Joe Payne replied to Don Bender's discussion Rain covers in the group Canon User Group"After reading the discussion, I did look at sites on the Internet and I was surprised to find so many options available. So, when I have more time and maybe money for that, I will go out again and look for something to allow me to shoot…"

Don Bender replied to Jordan Stead's discussion Sigma 70-200 2.8 or Canon in the group Canon User Group"I shoot a lot of sports, (football in particular) and I have to disagree with several of the people posting. I currently own a 400mm 2.8L IS USM lens and the 70-200mm 2.8L IS USM lens to do the majority of my sports shooting. While there are several…"
