I just a canon 400mm f2.8 and I'm looking for a soft case recommendation. The trunk that came with it is very nice but a bit to much sometimes. What do you guys use for your long lenses?

I use the Domke F612 for my 300 2.8 and the Kinesis L-511 for my 500 II. I like the Kinesis, but I wish they listed the diameters of the cases as well as the heights; there's enough room to store the 500 with 1.4x and 2x TCs and a body ready to go in there. I'd be happy with something shorter, since I keep the TCs in the outside pocket along with the tubes.

They do list the diameters......

Scroll down the page and they're stated in metric and imperial measurements.
I use the 511 for the 300/2.8 with the padded doughnut to keep it centred.
