Q: 1. How do you get the other rod to stay in place?

A: Both rods are clamped in a rod support that can be attached to a base support on a tripod or a camera. This LWS lens support is clamped to only one rod and rests on the other rod.

Q: 2. I will be shooting an A7s 2 as well as the 28-135 zoom lens - will I need this accessory for my cage???

A: I would recommend getting this. It is a great support for the lens. It works as advertised.

Q: 3. What's the minimum height you can achieve with the 1/4" adapter attached? I have 1cm clearance between the tip of the rod and the foot of the lens. Need to bolt it in as a v-mount still allows the lens to move.
