gary same as usual i only use one rig ,its the d7000 fitted with a nikon300mm f4-afs plus 1.7t/c this gives an effective focal length of 500mm but is still light enough to hand hold ,my only modification is a permanently attached manfrotto 393 mounting plate so i got something my big mitts can grasp ,i virtually never use the tripod always hand hold .
this set up is very versatile as i can shoot at 500mm as in the stoat pic above and instantly change to pseudo-macro just by flicking the limiter switch on the lens as below .
