I went for a stroll the other Sunday, to a local lake on my landlord's
farm. I took only my LX and drive with 300 Tokina 2.8 to give it a try. I
recently asked about heavy duty quick release systems because I wanted to
keep to the same system across all my monopod and tripod-mounted lenses,

Don't even remind me. A Tamron 300mm f2.8 sheared off the bush from a Gitzo
monopod this way, entailing cracked front element, totally buggered hood,
cracked motordrive, and a few minor scuffs to the camera. Once in a lifetime
is once too often for me.

Not on a lens with a rotating mount, Paul. The Tokina has a lovely one
