Does this lens require the use of a tri-pod mount?

It really depends on how steady your hands are. Is it needed? No. Is it desirable if you follow the rule to tripod any lens and camera combination (without IS) where the shutter speed is lower than the focal length of the lens? Then the answer is yes. (125th / sec shutter speed is "lower" than the 200mm focal length = use with a tripod vs. 250th / sec shutter speed is "higher" than the 200mm focal length = no tripod is necessary)

This lens is available with a Canon mount. Just be sure that you select the right version.

It has a standard screw mount, like any tri-pod...but it's not really a 'monopod' to speak, more an extension bar...it works perfect for little point & shoot cameras, like the Power Shot. It should work fine. (but I don't think it works so good as a monopod, it lacks the stability of the 'foot') :)

There is a piece that is kind of Z shaped that swears on a tri-pod and on the top of the Z shaped piece is a place to connect your camera, like a regular tri-pod. You will not have to have two tri-pods. I hope this makes sense haha.

Yes it does. It's not centered under the lens like you might expect, but you can mount it no problem to any standard tripod.

No other parts needed. The lens comes with the same connector as the Canon cameras, in one of the pictures it's labeled as a 'T-Mount'. I have this Lens and I also have the T4i works well together. The lens will mount on your tripod and the camera will just hang, just make sure you have a sturdy tripod.

Because it is a Monopod.It also serves as a nice walking staff to steady yourself getting to that perfect picture.If you want a tri-foot, then look on.This also has a sturdy retractable stainless steel spike that screws down to add grip to its traction.I use mine to support a Tamron 150-600mm lens, 4.3 pounds of glass.I love mine.

Yes, you will definitely need a Four Third to Micro Four Third adapter. By the way, be aware that this is an excellent, but seriously big lens. I use it on an Olympus E-5, and it still is fairly bulky. On a Panasonic GH1, it might look a bit out of proportion, by size and by weight...

when I got this lens there was only one way, with the c-mount adapter. it looks like there is now the e-mount option, they probably just permanently attached the adapter to the lens. either should be fine

I bought the lens with a canon mount. I believe you can get it with a Nikon mount though. Just be sure to check the lens mount on the amazon page before you buy it.

The lens (for a Canon EF mount) will mount but the sensors and the electronics won't work, so you'll need to focus by hand.

I suspect that you would need to purchase one with a Canon bayonet mount installed on the lens.

No but I think you probably would not need IS while shooting with this lens. I have never found the need to have it but I can understand one's need to have IS on heavier, higher aperture types of lenses. ... I love this lenses ability to get in close to the subject & with a flash, it really gets it! It truly is a great wide angle lens! ...

This lens doesn't fit directly onto any camera. It needs to me mounted onto another lens in place of a filter.

No, but it's small enough that you don't need one. A little plastic cling wrap so you don't get wax on the lens or body works great.

Yes, the adapter is called a T-Mount and should have been included with the original purchase. (I don't recall seeing one advertised without this mount included but it is certainly possible.) The t-mount screws onto the lens and then mounts to the camera.

I think so, yes. I bought this tri-pod because it was lightweight and I was taking it on a long backpacking trip to do some long exposures. I had my Pentax DSLR with a heavier Sigma lens and it held it just fine. Just an FYI though, it is a cheap, very light tripod. Unless weight or cost is an issue, I would recommend a higher quality tripod. It's great for the weight-conscience cheapskate like me though.
