Rapid River Weather Underground

Took it on my Devil's River trip in TX. There were other members of our team that had different types of SAT communicators. As soon as the weather got bad and clouds came in all of their coms could reach out to our outfitter for pickup except the inReach Mini 2. Clouds and weather didn't phase it at all. I was able to reach the outfitter in minutes and get us out. Battery life was impressive, most definitely could've used it the entire trip on one charge. Rugged and waterproof 100%. One thing I wish it had was a scroll or easier way to scroll.

Originally purchased this lens to reduce lens changes, especially during bad weather or rapid scene changes. Fit, finish and build are excellent. Controls are smooth. There was a very slight tightness when zooming out (at about 130mm), but that is almost gone now. Auto focus is fast and accurate. Close focusing ability is good. Sharpness is good throughout the range, although I only print up to 13x19, so opinions may vary. I really like this lens. Consider it the big brother to the 14-150. Cbug

I was not disappointed with my photos on River Trips which allows me wide angle views of the both banks and the variations within a river like river turns and whitewater action in shallows. Coupled with closeups of other kayak(s) and their paddler(s), has made it a fast action response to brief opportunties to record events. Protected by a conforming sized ice chest.

A must have for the rapid box.

Bought as a replacement for one that fell into a river.

Does very well on the Colorado river

Great vest. I'm using it in an underground coal mine. It's like having an extra pair of hands. It distributes weight evenly. I use it for batteries, flashes, all sorts of accessories. There are no pockets for big lenses, but that's O.K. It would make the vest too heavy and cumbersome. It's pretty good at repelling lime and coal dust and water and is not likely to tear easily. Pockets are lined with soft material, which is easy on lenses. These vests are a little pricey, but worth it. They're professional gear and are made for rugged use.

Solid takes abuse perfect for poking the gopro into strange places underwater and underground.

So far so good! Using as a backup power supply for an underground dog fence and so far is working great.

We mostly use it to protect our lens for our camera at work, being as we drag the camera through steam tunnels, in mud trenches, inside underground vaults, and through all sorts of other environments. The filter screws on firmly to the end of the lens and protects the lens from scratches, dirt, dust, etc. without distorting any of the pictures.
