how does this exactly attach to the Nikon P510? The camera has no threads

I sent it back, but as I recall there's a ring or adaptor that goes on first and that has the threads.

It attaches by tightening the two very small hex nuts on the tube. I found the tube to be too short to allow the camera to function in full zoom mode. Poorly engineered.

I do believe there is a collar with set screws which acts like a bridge between camera and lens kit. Yes the lens adapter!! It holds very well just make sure it is stored safely on bumpy trips!!

If you look at the picture, that tube in the second row is an adapter that attaches to the lens and the filters and other attachments go on that. The downside is for close shots you get a round pictures with a black mask. My advice is don't buy this and use the camera as is. This adds nothing. I've already thrown my away.

The hollow tube attaches to the camera with set screws that are on the side. The lenses then screw on to the tube.

They are wrong accessories for this camera. Actually the add is misleading. Nikon P510 has threading, but this lenses are oversized by a few millimetres. It is a waste of money, I would not advise anyone to purchase this item. To answer your question as to how it attaches, you have to zoom in your Nikon optical zoom and place the accessory lense over the the optical zoom lense, then tighten to it using screws on the accessory lens. It will hold, but the zoom will not zoom out since it will prevent it from doing that. Therefore, I would rate it as 1 out of 10.

Attach the bottom to the camera and then snap on the top. It will not work with any accessories attached to the camera.

Perhaps I am not understanding your question, but this does not have a threaded adapter base for the camera like a tripod does. The (included) adapter attaches to the bottom of the camera at one end with the Ram 1" ball at the other end. The ball then is inserted into top end of the long housing and tightened.

I don't own a D5100. I have D7000, D7100, and D600 bodies. Go to your local camera store and try one out. Put it on your 5100 body and see. If it has the same mount as the other Nikons, it should work. You can also contact Nikonusa.com. They will provide you with the answer.

The attachment is secure. The piece you see on top screws into the bottom of your camera. I'm very happy with this purchase. I recommend it.

I use this tripod with a Nikon S9500 and it works very well. The P9500 weighs a little over 7 ounces but I believe your P510 is a little heavier. The question is "how heavy is too much?"

It weighs around the same as my Nikon P510 (the Gorillapod works well with it) so it should work fine.

The camera connecting screw is the screw that goes through the battery unit into the threaded hole on the bottom of the camera. the other end of the connecting screw has a threaded hole to receive a tripod or other screw on attachment. When attached the battery unit is attached to the bottom of the camera and any other attachment that normally attaches to the camera just attaches to the battery unit

I'm pretty sure you will It has the same screw port as the d5100. That's what I use. I hope this helps

I'm not sure if it's for the D5100. I use it for the D 3100 And it works great. There is room for the Camera and my two lenses and my movie camera and an extra space for some extras. Plenty of room. Hope this helped.

it fit absolutely perfectly- nice surprise. ow if Nikon only would have made it possible to add lenses, filters and a top flash- it would be better than the D90.How do you like your cam? I have the P510.

unfortunately there are a LOT of different chargers; first time around, i bought the wrong one. best go to Nikon website and request charger for coolpix510 and find out which letters/numbers of the charger you need. then go buy it on amazon (since Nikon doesn't mail order. PHEW

You have to find the connector with the correct angle it is a screw mount and you can usually get a grab bag of different connector mounts for cheap. There is a plate on the chest harness that attaches to the plate on the camera you have mounted with the screw. The plates snap in place.

I have a Nikon P510, and for this camera the adapter works perfect.Friendly Regards, Els Netherlands

You DO NOT need the extension tube. The narrowest part of the 67 mm adapter should screw into the inside of the camera's lens. It does work on P510s. Mine is on with a circular polarizer filter right now.

You could mount it with an adapter, however it did not work with Nikon D5000, even on complete manual settings. Resulting in fuzzy pictures. I still have it, as a useless accessory.

it is threaded for a standard tripod mount. i have not tried to hook up a camera to it.
