You're right, there is a hole on the foot above Two of them are 1/4" in diameter and one is larger. There is a plate you need to buy Although it does affect your grip a little, it is a sacrifice I am willing to make in order to maintain the reliability
This was purchased a number of There is no satisfaction in this. You won't have to tighten it down on the lens body. Consequently, the tripod does not have the necessary stability. There is a lot of weight to this lens, so I wish it worked.
As well, I had the same issue. My solution was to cut several narrow strips of thicker double sided tape to apply to the Mount Ring, and then place them I have had success so far with it. I cut a new piece of tape when I'm ready if I need to remove the ring.
Yes, the tripod manufacturer should be contacted for the plate.

This is a solid, well-crafted product It's mostly true. It has already been discussed how the interference affects the hand grip. A cut-off date has been set An exact measurement of the control section for the lens defines the actual angle at which the lens is mounted, which is defined by the size of the panel it accommodates. With the camera attached, the camera is tilting a few degrees from a horizontal position, which must be corrected with the tripod head tilt. If a mount is used simply as a stand on a flat, level surface, the camera will not be The following new items were added to the The sharp corner of the handle was ground away, the cutout section widened to allow the camera to be mounted straight, and I rounded the corners of the handle to reduce interference with the grip. There are no compromises in strength with either modification As a result, black paint was applied to the metal areas exposed. Getting it to work perfectly is now possible. There is also a slight difference in color )(weight was another person's complaint)
If the manufacturer incorporates these changes, I would give this mount a big five star rating.
I think this is a wonderful add-on, made smartly to fit into the only hole on the lens that can accept a collar. Fit is snug, just as it should be, and the lens is cushioned so it won't scratch. Mounted on any OEM collar and lens combination, the mount is as safe as any OEM combination. You can still access the lens buttons while this is being done. Due to the limited space near the grip on the A7R II camera (which is the same size as the A7II and A7SII so the experience is the same no matter what camera you use), I only gave it a rating of 4 out of 5. I think it would be better on the Mark III bodies since they are a bit larger. There is not enough room between the mount and the grip to fully grip the camera (more of a fingertip grip with the mark II series) since the collar occupies most of the space between the mount and Although the collar decreased the tilt of the mount and made the camera more stable, it still perfectly fit my needs for tripod shooting where it enhances the center of gravity and decreases the strain on the tripod it's easy to remove in order to restore the normal grip space for shooting on the move (without a tripod).
My overall impression of this ring is positive, as it fits my lens snugly and well. This is the story of the big ark - I like that you included the Swiss foot. Mounting my lens securely to a tripod is made possible with this ring. This tripod mounting system is good for mounting the lens on a tripod. There are a few reasons why I gave it four stars I am - There is no tripod collar here, but only a tripod mounting ring. I meant to say that the tripod foot on the lens cannot be rotated. It is only possible to mount a cat with its foot facing down (relative to the camera) due to the cutout for the lens switch. The rotating collars on other systems such as Sony's G lenses may seem limited to those who are used the rotating collars you find on Sony's G lenses. Nevertheless, it is fair to say that the product does not advertise its capabilities. I-*- *- In addition, I have observed that since it is a separate piece of metal from the lens, it heats up faster than the lens if you shoot in the sun for a long Under normal use, this is not an issue, but it was very hot when I put the camera in the trunk of my car. As soon as I went to take it out, the collar was loose because it had grown more than the rest of the device. The collar has a bit of a wiggle to it if I force it, after I tightened it. The shift won't prevent its use to get stable shots, but you might be able to push the ring a few millimeters from its normal position The answer to this is not certain (I'm not sure if that was possible before the heating). It's worth $40 so I can't really complain, but I do think I'm blown away by the packaging. That much heat probably shouldn't have been applied to it (or the camera). Besides supporting the lens and letting me attach it securely to the tripod, this bracket is also very lightweight. There would likely be a $200 increase in prices if Sony had offered such a collar.
Quality materials have been used in the construction of this item. I could have worn it for the 70s This lens fits perfectly with a 300mm focal length. The problem is that the camera grip cannot be used when attached to the lens and attached to the Sony a6500 since it severely reduces the distance between the Using a remote control cable and mounted on a tripod will be my only option to use this.
After I bought my Sony FE 70-200, I must have walked around for a few days There are no autofocus settings on the 300mm f/4 lens. In order to take full advantage of this, I ordered the DSLRKIT Metal Tripod Mount Ring. Even though it is pricey, for me personally it is worth every penny since the ring is custom cast, and the three control switches are cut in the barrel custom designed for the ring. We must be able to reach the controls themselves at all times, as they are crucial. Changing the focus is either handled by the barrel or the menu, or by the button around the barrel. The same applies to changing the stabilization from no stabilization to auto, which is particularly essential when using When I heard the price, I blanched and started to look for cheaper lenses, but finally decided it was no good to spend $1,200 on a lens and not get a good.
What I like about it is its simplicity. For me, the ark Swiss grooves that are built into the machine work perfectly. You will need this if you are using this lens on a tripod. I contend that complaining about not having enough room to grip the camera is a bit of It is made to be used for the purpose for which it was designed. The heavy lens needs to be mounted on a Regardless of whether I'm using it handheld or on a tripod, I have no difficulty putting it on or taking it off. It seems to me that any Sony lens or camera has a little bit of a steep price tag, but I guess that goes for all Sony gear.
Those looking for a robust, overbuilt collar will be happy with this! It fits snuggly, doesn't damage the lens, and doesn't slip on fingers. It is true that if you have larger fingers, you may not be able to hold a 6x00 series camera by the grip, but I hold the camera by the lens when I have the 70-200mm lens Anyway, there are 300 attached. By securing it in this way, you can comfortably hold it by hand. When it comes to doing the job it was designed for, it does it I use it so that the weight can be distributed farther forward and the lens can be kept steady by my tripod.
I ordered this tripod mount ring for my Sony Fe 70 The lens has a 300mm focal length. I can't mount it on a tripod without using a ring because it's too heavy and large. I was considering another ring that cost more than It's a sturdy mount ring, and I like how it has some support to help me hold the camera and lens. I have it on my lens at the moment.
