I would not recommend parking *anywhere* in the city during such an
event.
BARTing is very worth it. How big is this lens that you can't carry it?
Well, the 250-600/f5.6 is 12lbs just by itself, and of course
there's a tripod needed as well. Plus I've got the 300/2.8.
And, of course, whatever I need for other shooting.
I can get everything except the tripod into the Pelican 1620.
Perhaps if I make do with the monopod I'll settle for that.
It's not exactly inconspicuous for street shooting, though.
Dude, with a lens like that 250-600, you don't need to be inconspicuous --
you could photograph people from two blocks away!
