Protect your Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E FL ED VR lens against scrapes and light impact with the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 500mm f/4E LensCoat TravelCoat Blackin black. Made in the USA from 3mm closed-cell neoprene, it offers shock absorption and is designed to safeguard your lens when not in use--especially during trips when it's stowed in a bag or pack. The cover is custom-made to fit the lens, in order to take up as little space as possible and maximize your room for packing and storage. This model is meant to be used with the hood on the lens in the reversed position.

The TravelCoat slides over the lens quickly and easily, and is secured via touch-fastener closure. It should be used with the appropriate optional LensCoat Hoodie Lens Cap for total protection. Additionally, it works well with LensCoat Lens Covers, which slip directly over the lens and are designed for use when shooting outdoors.

A: It is for the lens only. They do not make one for the lens plus a teleconverter

Q: 4. Has Anyone who owns this lens found a good quality plate that fits well?

A: I recommend that you replace the factory foot with a Kirk LP-47, which has an Arca-Swiss base. You'll save weight and have a more stable base compared with adding a plate to the factory foot. In addition, the Kirk foot is designed perfectly to accept a BlackRapid shoulder strap connector.

A: This Lens Coat Travel Coat for Nikon 600mm f/4E FL ED VR Lens designed specifically for the lens.

Q: 6. Will this fit Fuji 50-140mm lens?

A: This product is compatible with the Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 IS models and the 100-400mm IS. It may not be a good fit for the Fuji 50-140mm and we do not recommend it for that lens. Here is a link to some covers we offer that are made specifically for Fuji 50-140mm.https://bhpho.to/2lDyvLP

Q: 7. The CT 505 Hard Case is pictured with the lens. Is it included?

A: Yes, the 500 mm Nikon lens I bought from B & H Photo arrived inside a CT 505 case.

Q: 8. Is a plain glass protection filter available for this lens? I usually put them on my lenses just to keep the front glass clean.

A: No. There are no threads to accept a filter, and even if there were the weight of that much glass would throw off the very good balance of the lens. The front element of the lens is, essentially, plain glass and designed to protect the optical elements and be replaced at reasonable cost if it is damage. It has a coating that repels dust and fingerprints very well. In other words, this lens has a plain glass protection filter built in.

Q: 9. Does this work with the collar attached?

A: LensCoat TravelCoat for Canon RF 100-500mm Lens can be used on the Canon RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1 L IS USM Lens with the tripod collar.

Q: 10. Is this lens manufactured in Japan or in China like the new 300mm f/4 PF VR?

A: According to our information, this lens' country of origin is Japan. Please be aware this information can change over the course of a product's lifetime.

[0.3 lb] I followed the directions and had no problems adding the pieces to my 500mm f4 E lens. I removed the lens foot with a hex tool I had and that made it much easier toadd the LensCoat pieces. 5

[0.3 lb] This is a wonderful addition for me. It weighs only a few more ounces than the f2.8 300mm lens, and gives me more of the reach I want - to see those tack sharp eyes on birds. It is a huge expense, however, and of course that is the fact of life downside. But - if you can swing this - you should be very happy! 5

[0.3 lb] I usually have a lens coat on my super-tele lenses, however I went with this and the XX Large hoodie instead for my new 500mm f4E VR FL. I got tired of the way the lens cost fit on the lens, you either have to remove pieces or deal with it. Lenscoats, especially the new ones cover up too much of the lens, such as function buttons, the five main switches, the drop-in filter holder, the manual focus ring. So I slowly started removing pieces until I had barely any left. So I decided to buy this instead and I really like it, it’s thicker and offers more protection than the regular lens coat. It’s on the lens when the lens is in the bag, either my thinktank Airport Accelerator or long lens bag. It’s easy to remove and put on and it protects the lens from getting banged up or scratched, etc. Once I bring the lens out of the bag and out of this, I put it directly onto my monopod or tripod and I’m careful. So far so good, my lens looks like new almost a year later and I’m no longer messing with the lens coat being in my way. For me this is the best option. Maybe someday they will make lenscoats for actually using your lens, but for now I’ll just use this to protect the lens when it’s not on top of my tripod. 5
