If you want to travel with a large lens you don't have much choice. I've got a Pelican 1620 for those situations, and it's flown in checked baggage quite a few times. So far I've been able to take the smaller Pelican as carry-on, but I carry TSA-approved locks just in case I'm asked to check it. Having good gear, but being afraid to take it with you, is silly. It's all insured (at replacement cost, not at what I paid for it), so losing it would be an inconvenience, but not a disaster. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
