your all a bad influence!

Alright I finally caved and bought a 20D........got the 20d, with the standard lens (for use with the family), and a sigma fixed 20mm, plus the 2 year you break it they give up a new one warrenty all for around 2g's from Ritz. I could have saved money by going online but the warm feeling in the tummy I get from talking to a live person is worth the extra cost! I also picked up a spare sony TRV so 2600 for all was not to bad.

As far as mounting it, I have a FTP and plan on using the L bracket but I was wondering if anyone has made a longer bracket to accomidate the extra lens lenth? Any mounting advice would be appreciated.

Interesting idea. However, I personally haven't seen a longer "L Bracket' installed. Perhaps we just like minimizing the weight and snag force on our helmets. (besides, the kit lens that comes with the Canon cameras is extremely light).

I have the same lens (10d) and a trv both mounted side by side on a ftp. This leaves room up front for a flash or a 2nd still.

Do you have the 10d in Portrait or landscape up top?

landscape. If I want to the L bracket can be rotated in FF if i put a cam on it.
