So, I can carry the 150-600mm for a few kilometres on my shoulders, but it's a pain. In some cases, a few good hides for watching birds can be reached by walking on a paved road, even though a little bumpy.

 

I was guessing about carrying the lens with a trolley such as this one:

I actually bought one. But then I was worried about the fact that the wheels are not damped and perhaps vibrations could damage the lens. So I wasn't brave enough to try it... Huh  

 

Thoughts?
