Q: 1. Any idea how many lbs of buckwheat hulls it would take to fill this? For example using B&H # KIR428H MFR # R428H. Thanks.

A: I bought a 5-lb bag of buckwheat hulls and ended up using approximately 4 lbs. It actually took more than I would have estimated.

Q: 2. How does this compare to a DX55-300 4.5/5.6 with FTZ converter used on a Z6II for night soccer?

A: The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Lens (BH #NI55300GAF) is not a full frame lens, so if you were to use it instead of the Nikon NIKKOR Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR Lens on the Z6II you would have a vignetting issue unless you were to crop into the image. The Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR Lens does have a less restrictive aperture range as you zoom in, so it would be slightly better in low light situations. However, since most soccer fields tend to be pretty well lit, lighting likely won't be as big of an issue.

Q: 3. As Nikon Z8 has IBIS "built-in" what does this Zoom's VR add vs. Nikon z 24-120mm f4 S for stabilization on Z8?

Q: 4. Aside from the longer zoom range, how does this compare to the Z24-200mm lens?

Q: 5. Can one use the TC 1.4 with this lens?

Q: 6. As Nikon Z8 IBIS has "VR" built-in, what does this zoom's VR add to stabilization vs. Nikon Z 24-120mm F4 S for Z8 IBIS?

A: Because In Body Image Stabilization is not as effective with telephoto lenses as it is with wide-angle lenses, it helps to have both types available.

Q: 7. Is this true? there are 2 main problems: - the very end of the lens where it attaches to the camera is done as a steep cone, the piece that goes there doesn't stay in place and creates problem when you mount the lens; - the piece that goes on the extension works only with the lens fully extended, any focal length less than 500 you need to remove the cover.

A: Hi John, thank you for your feedback. I have to check the part closest to the body that does not stay in place. Once on the lens and on the body it stays in place I assume? The part on the extension is an 'extra' piece and yes it is correct that this part can only be used with the lens fully extended, if you use the zoom function that you cannot install this part. easyCover Team
