My investment in a Nikkor f/5.6 200mm - 500mm ED VR zoom lens needed a protective filter to prevent any damage to the front element. As the saying goes, "It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it." At this price, it's a no-brainer.
Capture clear images with help from this Sunpak PlatinumPlus 6700M 620-670BB monopod that features a rubber foot with a retractable spike to provide stable support. The standard mounting plate accommodates a wide variety of cameras and camcorders.
After examining the monopod, I couldn't believe the price was so low. It's a quality product with excellent construction. I put my weight on the fully extended friction cams and there was no slippage whatsoever. I paid 5 times the price for my last good monopod.

I bought a Nikkor lens from Best Buy (f/5.6 200mm - 500mm zoom ED VR) and had used a large backpack to carry it in. Just that one time told me that I needed a better case for my investment. So I went back to Best Buy and saw this case, and inspected it in and out for padding, stitching, and features. The padding is dense and very protective, the stitching is top notch, and the features are more than any other case of its type I've seen. Plus, it was on sale! Bam, deal done.

Though the former advice regarding telephotos was to shy away from zoom lenses and to stick to prime lenses in the interest of optimum sharpness, this lens has shown to be the exception to that rule. It is amazingly sharp, edge to edge, even at full aperture. I am extremely pleased with this lens. And though being a Nikon, you'd expect this lens to be made in Japan, it is made in fact, in China. I've researched this and found that you can't get around this. But, there is no compromise in fit, finish, nor performance. This is worthy of the high expectations of the Nikon name.
