I bought the RF 100-400 today. Going to test it out now
 
I've been looking for a second-hand RF 100-500 and was just about to buy one from Wex, when I found that new lenses were £500 off, so I managed to get a new one for less than I was going to pay for a used one!

First impression - what idiot decided to put the control ring  there? lol
 
Could not agree more!!! Cannot be used.
 
I got a new strap over the weekend, a Peak Design Slide Lite, as well as a matching PD Cuff for when I don't need to walk around with the camera over my shoulder. My previous strap has served me well for almost a decade, but it's starting to show some signs of wear, and only cost $10 in the first place, so it doesn't owe me anything at this point. Plus, carrying around a camera and lens collectively worth a couple grand on a $10 strap seemed silly.
I bought a PD Slide a few weeks ago, to go with my PD Clutch. I've only used it a few times, but already I love the quick-release mechanism.

My only complaint would be that the padded section is too stiff to bend in half, making it difficult to fold the strap as small as I'd like when it's not being used, but that's not a showstopper.

I might get another one, to replace the aging strap on my backup 5D mk III...
