Review: Looked for a while for something like this... - With years of photography, there was one thing that annoyed me greatly and that was that unless you had a lens with the built-in tripod structure, odds are that you needed to find a way to balance and stabilize the lens otherwise you'd get shake when using a long lens supposed only by the camera's mount. For years, there was no options, and then a few that were expensive. Then I found this support, at a decent price, and expected something that might not be bad. I received it and saw right away that THAT was an understatement... Not bad is not close to describing this support... it's fantastic. It's very strong, heavy, extremely nice quality, not one part is sub-par. It's made of actual metal, brushed painted finish, the velcro belt is an excellent strong nylon type, the mountings are very solid and easily adjusted. The fact that there's a quick release built-in (and the way it's built), was a welcomed surprised. For the price I bought it for here on desertcart, it was cheaper than any other place I've seen it and very much worth every penny. This thing is built to last for lifetimes, great-grandkids will probably still use it (if any goes into photography, and things like the cameras don't change too much). I used to fear using my big lenses, not any more, even without a tripod I can see how you could use it just as a hand-held support to prevent the shakes by resting this against something..
Review: Great long lens mount - Got this for my wife’s Canon 800D with the Canon 100-400mm L telephoto lens. This unit is very well made using aluminum stock, attaches to the camera/lens easily and provides a solid and secure mounting to the tripod. It also is better balanced on the tripod then just the lens ring mount. The quick disconnect has a good locking feature with an audible click. It is hefty and adds weight to an already heavy camera/lens combination, so this is not really something one would use to take snapshots. Mine did not come with any instructions but it was not difficult to figure out how to assemble it to the camera. All in all, a good value for the money that should prove durable for field wildlife photos. Side note - desertcart prime on this delivery was terrible. It took a week plus to get this unit instead of the two day normal and expected delivery .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Professional quality but heavy and a little cumbersome
*by I***R on March 16, 2014*

Just like you'd expect from Manfrotto, this is a very high quality, professional-grade product. It performs as described and will no doubt provide years of use. It's heavy but I didn't take away a star for that reason. I love that this is a machined, precision device made mostly of metal and not plastic. However, as you can see in the image of the product, you use a strap to hold the lens onto the base and that makes it difficult to turn the lens to zoom or focus it. I wish you could adjust the position of the strap backwards or forward because that way I could put it around a smoother surface on my long lens. As it is, the strap goes around the knurled plastic on the lens, which makes it hard to turn. However, that's a minor complaint. This is an expensive device but it's very high quality.
