Haoge Tripod Mount Ring for Tamron 35-150 mm F2-2.8 Di III VXD A058 Lens and Sigma 100-400mm f5-6.3 DG OS HSM Lens for Canon EF Mount and Nikon F

The Haoge Tripod Mount Ring for the Tamron 35-150 mm F/2-2.8 Di III VXD A058 and Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 lenses has garnered a mixed reception from customers, particularly in regard to its compatibility and effectiveness with high-end lenses. Many users initially expressed skepticism about using a non-OEM product for such an expensive lens, but numerous reviewers reported satisfactory performance with steady support for their equipment. One prominent issue cited is the design of the ring, which some customers feel needs improvements. Specifically, the lack of a lip at the top and bottom of the mount ring can lead to the lens sliding too far forward, which obstructs its operation. This design flaw poses a risk, as tightening the ring to prevent slippage can potentially damage the lens, making it a concern for users who want to ensure longevity for their expensive gear. On the flip side, users noted that it provides a more spacious grip, especially beneficial when using a monopod, as it can better balance heavier setups like the Nikon Z9. Another limitation noted by users is compatibility, with several mentioning that the dimensions of their lenses did not match the requirements for a secure fit, which limits the universality of this mount ring. The request for a reversible bottom plate or a square design instead of the current rectangular one also came up, highlighting the need for versatility in mounting options for different setups. Nonetheless, many found it sturdy enough to support sling attachments, making it practical for carrying cameras while hanging at the side, especially during active shooting sessions. Overall, the Haoge Tripod Mount Ring appeals to some users for its support capabilities but leaves room for improvement in terms of design and compatibility. **
