Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew of third party tripod collar replacements for the Nikon 180-600 yet? Unfortunately the entire collar has to be replaced, but I'm hoping that someone will make one with an arch Swiss foot if the lens becomes popular, and it seems it will be.
Cheers,
Scott

Thanks for posting this. It seems like this company has some engineers that are very pensive about design. They make long lens supports and adapters for Manfrotto video heads that can go attached to the Arca style foot. I wish more American companies did things like that.
