R5? R6? Anyone?

[Joel Eade]

Aaand since i got so good deal on the R6 just ordered myself the RF800mm to finally go back to my photographing root aka birds and animals. So might actually end up takin pictures daytime

Looking at this lens at retail sites and youtube I have never seen it mounted on a tripod and it apparently does not come with a collar or foot. Do you know how it mounts on a ballhead or gimbal?

That's a good observation --- it looks like a gimbal is not possible with this lens. But I suppose you could use a rail and clamp setup to make it work from a camera bracket..? Something like this: https://www.reallyrightstuff.com/192...-192-FAS-Clamp
