Review on IShoot 200 500Mm Machined Support ARCA SWISS by Ryan Maruffo

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor workmanship of the tripod mount rings

The Arca-Swiss Mount lens ring idea is great, but the execution of this product is not very good. The collar sticks regularly (not smooth like the original Nikon mount) and the edges of the mounting plate are not smooth enough to wear comfortably. I'm sending mine back and will be looking for another one, but I've now put the original (with a separate Arca plate) back onto my Nikon 200-500/5.6.

Pros
  • The lens mount follows and is modified from Nikon's original standard design. Integrated design, non-slip grip larger, reserved finger position. The inner diameter of the tripod ring is about 79.5mm, the width is about 23mm, with an internal 3M film to protect the lens from scratches, can be rotated 360 degrees freely;
