Does this come with a Lens Collar (tripod mount ring)? (if not what is available?)

If by Lens Collar you mean the adapter that allows fitting to the standard lenses listed (mine is a sony @ 230), then yes. Make sure you are ordering one that lists the adapter. There are several configurations listed out there, but this one has it.

how are you doing.. it does come with a lens collar. you are set and readt to go. just g0t back fron photo trip useing this lens. i have pictures i take at my facebook page... allan kelley... i few good tips useing this lens.. put on tripod and use a remote shutter release. you need pretty good light to get good pictures. it takes some time to get use to the manual fos... if your camera has peaking lever control it will help alot. just pick the right color... this is some thing sony cameras have.. (sony a77 camera) you can pick red or white or yellow... it out lines what part of your picture will be sharp. it help alot if the light is right. well good luck woith your shooting. you can,t get good pictures if your not there prictaceing. shoots lots of pictures and the lens gets easyer to use. but it is a slow lens. good luck...

This lens has a rotating lens mounting ring. Works great and make this lens a good deal.

No it does not come with a lens collar. But it mounts well on the tripod with some instability due to its weight.

Yes it has the long tab off the bottom that goes down into the lens. Installed this in about 30 mins and works just like the nikon ring. Worth it. Just make sure you get a spare for next time!

There is an additional tripod mount on the lens and it balances quite well. I have a D70 and a D5200 and the adapter ring for Nikon fits both.

It does. But it is an inferior, rather flimsy collar. The lens is spectacular; no reservations about recommending it. But go to Really Right Stuff and get yourself a replacement collar; you'll be glad you did.

Yes it comes with a lens cap as well as an attachment for a mono or tripod.

This lens does not come with a collar, so if you want to shoot with a tripod, you'll need one. Although I no longer own this lens, I did see several after-market collars made for this lens at substantially lower prices vs. Nikon's.

All large Nikon telephotos have a tripod collar. It also serves as a handgrip for good balance.

No. It comes with 2 round button-like things that screw into your camera's tripod mount. These buttons slip into brackets on the harness so you can remove the cameras easily. Just watch how you mount them onto your camera and they work very nice. Align the groove in the center parallel to the lens. This is a great item to carry up to 2 cameras with your hands free. I am recovering from broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder and without this my photography walkabouts would be impossible right now. If your lens has a tripod ring on it, just put your tripod mount on it and turn it to the side or top while you carry it.

No, rings are not included and be sure to get EXTRA-high rings due to the 50mm objective lens. I have had the best results with rings that are "windage adjustable" which allow far more adjustment on the horizontal plane.

You can't use a standard tripod collar. There are tripod collar specially made for the 80-200mm 2.8 Nikkor. I believe Amazon even carries one.

Hi Harry, the lens does not come with a lens hood. We do not have a lens hood that is compatible with this model. Thanks_Mitch

Mine only came with the 58mm filter. I bought an adaptor ring separately for my 52mm lens mount.

mine did come with lens covers, but I had to buy rings, mine is mounted on a savage 223, I bought some cheap ($30) rings and they work great. I like the scope.

Yes, a case which you can hang around your neck, and 4 lids that you put on the lens. It also includes a small cloth to clean it with. Hope this helps
