Helping to prevent zoom creep, the light blue Lens Band MINI from LENSband is a simple silicone rubber band specifically designed to stop unwanted lens movement from occurring. Sized to fit most mirrorless zoom lenses, this band will stretch over zoom rings ranging in diameter from 49 to 67mm in order to prevent the lens from moving under its own weight when angled upward or downward. When not in use, the band can be stored over your lens and can also be used to provide increased grip for removing jammed or stuck filters on the front of your lens.

Q: 8. Have you try the mirrorless Splat with heavier cameras than the 1.1lb load capacity stated??

A: My Splat (3-leg) says it is rated for 1500g or 3 lbs of camera, which is why I bought it - I'm using a Canon EOS Rbel SL1 body with the new Tamron 16-300 lens, which weighs in at 2 pounds 7 ounces, including the strap. For my rig, the tripod works extremely well, just as I expected, and lives in my backpack or camera bag.
