Custom build collar mount for older type Nikkor 80-200 f2.8 ED push/pull lens.
Designed to fit most modern DSLR Nikon cameras using this type of lens. It is known to fit the following models D7100, D750, D800 - please check fitting dimensions below to see if it will work with your camera. The internal diameter of the clamp section is 89mm and will be a smooth fit on the end of your push/pull lens section where the limit switch is located.
The
fitting dimensions for a D750 are 43mm vertically from the lens centre
to the u/side of the camera body and 35mm horizontally from the
centre of the tripod hole to the mounting face of the lens. The first
dimension is more important than the second as the clamp may grip
anywhere along the end of the lens - the lens limit switch and the focus
window fit in the open section of the clamp. That being said if the
dimensions on your camera are within 3mm +/- of the first dimension or
10mm +/- of the second, this clamp should be Ok for your Nikon camera with this push/pull lens. Please refer to the pictures for more information or email me with any questions.
Manufactured
from carbon steel with nylon clamp and stainless steel fixings. To fit -
remove lens hood (if fitted) and slide end of lens through nylon clamp
and then screw standard 1/4" UNC knurled knob into camera tripod mount.
Finally click the foam cushioned clip in place. The tripod mount has a
1/4" UNC tapped hole positioned at centre of gravity (c of g) to
allow tripod or monopod mounting using a suitable quick release bracket
(not included). The mount really comes into its own when used in
portrait mode, the c of g hole balancing the lens and camera perfectly.
This custom mount is designed to fit the Nikkor push/pull lens and unlike more expensive items can be fitted and removed without
need for tools and very quickly. The clamp does not necessarily need to
have the clip fitted as the lens fits very securely into the clamp
section, but in some circumstances it will offer added security.
Overall dimensions 240mm Long x 130mm High x 110mm Wide. May be disassembled using M6 Allen key and 10mm spanner.
Please note the item for sale is the tripod collar/mount only and does not include the lens and camera. See final picture for complete item for sale. Please also note that the design/style of the 1/4" screw knob may vary to that shown in the photographs.
