Used Canon Tripod Mount Ring A II for EF 70-200mm f/4L USM, White Finish

Canon stuff is the best. My bags are full of it. The price is a bit high and some knockoffs are available. But compared to the price of a new Canon L-Series lens, the price is not unreasonable. If you have the 70-200mm/f4L, buy the tripod collar, especially if you plan to use the lens with a teleconverter.

Fits perfectly, turns smoothly and locks securely on my 400mm. f/5.6 lens. It's expensive, but worth the price. I tried the Vello brand but was disappointed with the fit and operation.

The Canon Tripod Mount Ring is a must when using a Tripod or Monopod. It is expensive but has good built quality to match Canon L Lenses.

Althought the Canon EF 70-200 f4L IS USM is light enough to be used without this, I fail to understand why it's not included with the lens. The slight additional cost this might add to the lens purchase would more than offset the hassle of having to order it after the fact.

I use this adapter on a Manfrotto 682B self-standing monopod when I cannot use a tripod. The camera (Eos 7d) and lens (70-200mm f/4L) is better-balanced when mounted at the lens which allows the use of the self-standing feature of the monopod. My only real negative (not worth a star demotion) is that the adapter is expensive, and should be supplied with the lens -- perhaps Canon could increase the cost of the lens by half of what this unit costs separately, and include the adapter with the lens).

I use this product primarily to hold the 70-200mm f/4L USM IS lens to a monopod. It appears to be just as strong and well built as the original Canon ring. It lacks the quick release (you have to unscrew it all the way to get the ring off) but considering all else it is a quality product. Fit is great and the liner is soft on the lens.

This ring is indeed an excellently manufactured article. With that said, I see no reason that is should cost so much. I'v tried cheaper ring(s) but they were made of plastic and metal as opposed to all metal. I ended up coughing of the cash for this one. I will say that this ring is rock-solid and I have no fear of breakage or deterioration of materials. I do feel that Canon should have included the ring with the lens.

I bought the Canon 70-200 USM IS F4L Zoom Lens. This is an excellant addition to the Lens (since it doesn't come with a Tripod Mount). The mount makes it easier to properly balance the Lens-Camera combination on a MonoPod or TriPod. Using the screw mount on the camera biases the weight to the lens, making it difficult to be steady and consistent. The ability to position the mount either toward or away from the camera allows you to maintain the center of balance when using the lens with or without an extender Easily worth the investment to go along with the Lens.

Very stable and secure.

Fits the lens perfectly and helps to keep things steady especially when using an extender.
