Anyone using it for the 70-200 f4? Does it still works or is it too loose?

I use it for both my 70-200 2.8 is ii and my 100 2.8 macro with hood installed....70-200 f4 will not be too loose.

I have had mine on my d7000 since the day I bought both and as long as you make sure to tighten it really well it will not move.

It works as designed on the IS version. Don't think it will work on the non IS version. Just noticed you mentioned the Canon version. This will not work on either the Canon 70-200 F4 IS or Non IS.

better check the weight capacity as per manufacturer's manual. It works well with my 200-400mm f4 Nikkor which is about 3.5kg. The best in class is Wimberly from my knowledge.. but too costly.

My 24-105mm F4.0 IS L stays on my camera when traveling abroad. It's heavy, but it does take fantastic pictures. Check into the Crumpler straps. I own this strap (http://www.amazon.com/Crumpler-The-Industry-Disgrace-Brown/dp/B001JQ4QCW/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1321633955&sr=8-10) and it lets me carry my 70-200mm F2.8 IS L around all day without fatigue.

I just upgraded from the 24-70 f/2.8 L to the 24-70 F/2.8L II. I'm not sure which version you are asking about, but the new version of the lens fits just fine with the lens hood on. The new version of the lens has a filter size of 82 mm and the original version has a Filter size of 77 mm, so if the new one fits, the old one should fit as well. I know the lens hood on the original is larger, but primarily it is longer, and there is some width to spare given the change in diameter.

It can fit 6D and 24-70 in very tight fit. If you put the 70-200 f2.8 II on its case and hook it on the side of the bag that might work. But I don't think it will be good since this bag is really small.

Yep, no issues there! It is very sturdy. I've been using it with a d3300 and some heavy lenses, and would trust it with quite a bit more weight.

The one I bought was specific for the Nikon 70-200 F4. I would think the odds of it fitting another lens extremely remote. I can't say for sure but I would not take the chance. I had the Tamron lens and didn't think it was long enough to require the mount, but that is my opinion only. As an example, I have a ring I bought for a Canon 70-200 F4 several years ago and I hoped it would fit the Nikon. No such luck. They make a lot of money selling these after market items and I am fairly sure they want as little lens to lens compatibility as possible.

I don't see why the 70-200 would not work...it's very adjustable. I don't do too much follow focus with it, it's ok, but not the best for that, but none of these type of focus design work all that well for me.

I have a T3i so I can't address the fit issues. Any decrease in image size through the eyepiece is minimal from my experience. It has been very useful for me.

It is not a "fixed" F/2.8. It is a "constant" F/2.8 which does not change when zoom from 24 to 70. It still has the smallest aperture of F/22 that you can use to gain all the DOF you want.

I use it with my T4i camera lens 70-300 and have found it works well for close upHave not tried distant shots yet

Yes I used it on 7d with 70-200 lens leaning against a wall or a tree(takes a little patience).

l have used it with a Canon 7D and a Tamron 70-300 mm lens. At least 2lbs in total. A counter weight helps stability.

Hey there, right now I'm running a D800 with a 24-70mm and there is still a weight left so it should be ok. I am assuming the 80-200mm should be similar in weight. That being said, if size and portability is not a concern I would suggest a glide cam for smoother gliding. Else the steadicam is unbeatable for travelling.

I had an older one that was and has been perfect- Still working great- with a scratched lense- Purchased a new one- Not worth having- buttons fell off etc. When strapped tightly to arm- did not work as well as a little loose- good luck.
