is it difficult to use when the tripod foot is attached to the 70-200 f2.8?

No, not at all. These bags are very well thought out; made by photographers for photographers. As a sport shooter, I own tons of Think Tank bags, everything from the Lens Changer 15 to the Airport Security Roller. Extremely well made and durable ! Check 'em out at Think Tank Photo.com. Their staff in customer service is SUPER !

Hi Stephen - I can only agree with the 2 previous answers. A Nikon 70-200 will fit in to a TTLC75 with its shoe on. It's not ideal but then again, with the shoe you're spoiling an otherwise smooth surface which is not going to glide perfectly in and out. It does fit however.

Not at all. The measurement around the hood is longer than around the lens and tripod foot -- event with a Manfrotto quick release plate. This case seems to have been made for the Canon 70-200 f2.8L IS II. The lens fits great with hood in either position and with the tripod collar.

31 pounds is too heavy I think. My Nikon D800+70-200 2.8 is about 6-7 pounds.

Joe, best I can do is what I've stated previously. Screw the grip to camera platform on your tripod.

I use it regularly with a Canon 7D and a 24-70 as well as a 70-200 and have not had any trouble.

Yes, of course, because has incorporate a removal adapter to use with camera shoe or tripod fastener. I took some pictures to upload them but it does not give me the option.

very much so, once you have the little tripod attachment that came with the sb700

I would recommend it for sure because the tripod is hard to get level and the ball head has a level on it. You will have less frustration adjusting the ball head than trying to get the flexible legs adjusted.

A steady hand is necessary for the H200 because it does not have an eye-level viewfinder.The best way to avoid "camera shake" is to use a tripod.

It can't, as far as I know. If you want to switch between the rig and the tripod, you have to unscrew the camera.

Yes it is, I just attached my Fujifilm s3pro to it (albeit without a lens) to verify; I would tilt the camera toward the single leg with the logo on it for balancing, and perhaps have the bracket (which has two pivot points) pointed upward to bring the camera closer to the tip of the tripod legs. That way it extends outward less. being a camera with a built-in grip it only sticks out about two inches past the long leg and is perfectly stable. I just stacked my Nikon FE with a 50mm 1.8, AND my 35mm 2.8 manual lenses on it and it's holding here on my desk just fine. :) so yes, two cameras and two lenses worth of weight, straight up, just fine. I recommend a cable or remote release in any case, but especially in this one (it is plastic after all). OR just use timed release if you have the patience and don't mind 2-5 seconds between shutter press and activation. You'll have to compose carefully or place the pod on a surface that let's you compose, but it will work. cheers!

That has been my experience also. The tripod does not adjust for viewing directly overhead.

No. I tried to unscrew the rubber foot from the pole but it would not come loose. I does look like it could be converted fairly easy though. The threads for the foot appear to be the same as that for the camera, although I didn't have a thread gauge to check it with.

I don't know but me I take photo with a Canon 7D and a lens 70-200 and it's very stable and I love to work with this monopod. Sorry for my english but I am french speaking.

I am using the Really Right Stuff TVC-33 and a Wemberly gimble head. The tripod is heavy enough for my 800 mm lens also but not excessively heavy for short carrying in the field. I like the variable leg endings for rock placement and it still will reduce in height for macro pics in the field.

The tripod has a fairlly standard "quick disconnect" shoe that fits in the quick disconnect head on the tripod. The shoe has a 1/4-20 standard camera screw. So connect the shoe to the device you want to mount then just snap it into the tripod head....fast and easy. If you have multiple devices you can get multiple shoe (my discription/term) for not much and just flip one lever on the tripod and they change out very fast.

There is a female threaded connection point on the body that attaches to the "shoe" of a tripod. Simply remove the protective cap for the female threaded port.Most tripods use the same size connections for tripods, but there might be an oddball connection out there somewhere.

Sure, using it with the legs retracted will make it more like a normal monopod foot. I'm not sure how low you need to go with it, they get about knee-height with a camera on top.
