Made from 3mm-thick shock-absorbing closed-cell neoprene, the LensCoat TravelCoat, in RealTree's Max 4 camouflage pattern, blends into your surroundings when you're out in the woods and on or near water. It offers a custom fit for your Nikon 180-400 TC 1.4X FL VR lens, protecting it from bumps and scratches to preserve its finish and condition without taking up extra room. The insulated design provides a thermal barrier between your hands and the lens surface when you are working in cold temperatures, and it is water resistant so your lens is protected when you are working in rainy weather. The TravelCoat fits over your lens and stays attached with touch-fasteners, so you can get it off easily and start shooting. This cover is made for use with the lens hood on in the reverse position and it is compatible with a stock or replacement foot.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this a true addition or an expensive replacement to the Nikon 200-400 F4?If I slapped a 1.4x TC on the end Id have a similar piece of glass for about half the price.

A: The 180-400 is a VERY significant improvement over the 200-400 f4. I've owned 3 copies of the 200-400. The 180-400 is much better. You will understand the joy of the built-in converter if you've tried putting on and taking off a regular TC. I've even used my 180-400 with internal TC engaged AND added an external 1.4 x TC as well. If you can afford this lens, it's worth it.

A: Though not listed, it should be compatible with the Nikon D6 as the D6 is one of the newest camera options from Nikon.

Q: 5. Does Nikon make a hard case for this lens? I find it hard to believe that a 12k+ lens comes only with a bag for a case!!!

A: Unfortunately, Nikon does not have a hard case designed for use with the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 180-400mm f/4E TC1.4 FL ED VR Lens, B&H # NI1804004E. If you are looking for a hard case for your usage needs, I would recommend the Pelican 1460 Case with Foam (Black), B&H # PE1460FB, as a good option for your usage needs.

Q: 6. Will this fit my Fujifilm X-T50 with a Fuji 15-45mm lens attached?

A: Used items have 90 day warranty with B&H.

Q: 8. Are the minimum focusing distance and maximum magnification for the lens with or without the built in teleconverter?

A: The minimum focus distance is the same with or without the TC being on. With the TC it's .36 and without it's .24.

Q: 9. What are the compatible drop-in filters?

A: The only compatible filters are the drop in polarizer; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1128782-REG/nikon_2221_40_5mm_slip_in_circular_polarizing.html and the clear filter that comes with the lens. You can try other brand 40.5mm filters but I cannot guarantee that they will fit due to the different thickness of filter rings.

Q: 10. What is the main reason to own this lens instead of a Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6E?

A: The main reason for getting the NIKKOR 180-400mm f/4E TC1.4 FL ED VR Lens is that you would get world-class, best possible image quality. The NIKKOR 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR Lens is very good but is not in the same league. With the NIKKOR 180-400mm, you also get the best possible build quality with one full stop faster f/stop. If your desire is to get the best possible imaging quality for birding or sports or landscape, the NIKKOR 180-400mm is for you.
