Hi Guys,

Please, does anyone know any tripod collar that is compatible with the new Canon RF 100-400?

Many thanks

You dont need one The lens is very lite. If Canon thought you needed one they would have it for sale.

The RF 24-105 f4 L is 700G, 50g more than the rf 100-400.

Try this with the 2X teleconverter mounted on a gimble and then say that it doesn't need a tripod collar.

Bill I don't see any mention of the RF 2x the RF 100-400 or any R body in your gear list. Hmm so you have tested this yourself?

I dont have the RF 2x only the 1.4X and that works fine.

Dave,

Over the next month, I'll be replacing my Fuji gear with the Canon R6 II and 24-240. For wildlife I'm considering the 100-400 or 150-500, both with the 2x TC. I'd prefer the lighter 100-400 but would need to mount it on my gimble. The body gets in the way.
