[QUOTE="Flyfisher, post: 895053, member: 75117"] The Cabelas model has a slide out lens shade, but since the sun was not out I didn't think it was needed. Thank you for that advice, I would have not thought of that on my own. I will pull out the lens shade next time out and try that. As for a tripod, the one I was using is not the greatest and definitely needs upgraded. A good tripod and head is next on my list of purchases. I have been looking at the Vanguard Alta or Manfrotto 290 series. I am leaning toward a fluid head for smoothness and stability. I am open to other models/ideas, and realize the importance of a stable, secure base for viewing. Thanks again for the reply and suggestions. [/QUOTE]
