Lens Collar vs L-bracket

- Just recently I bought a lens collar from Sunwayfoto to see its potential, and in the video, you can see the main differences between this lens collar and the L-Bracket. Is it really worth it? Does it make the L-bracket unnecessary? Check out the video to see more

Interesting. Thanks for share your knowledge
This was a VERY helpful video. I had purchased the Sunwayfoto lens collar for my Sony camera, but had no idea how to put it together as the directions were not helpful. Thanks for saving me lots of aggravation! Great video!!!
I’m glad it was useful! Thank you
Nice. Thank you.
The beauty of the ATOLL is that it has a peak design clip adapter built into the plate.
Top Ale, ótima indicação.
Valeu 😀
Very helpful thank you
You're welcome
Mamiya came up with the revolving tripod mount years ago for their 645 Pro camera.
Ale, você vai fazer um vídeo usando este colar em campo? Gostaria de saber se ele dá uma boa estabilidade com lentes como a 24-105.
I wish this could be used on my Canon 1D X but the distance between the base of the camera to the centre of the lens mount is 80mm.
Yeah, a bummer, too bad they don't expand the options for larger cameras and lenses
Begginer questions (Dúvidas de iniciante):
Great accessory. I liked. I'm just trying to think of a situation where this L-Bracket parallax error would interfere with. I think it would be every time I took the camera out of the Arca Swiss mount. But if I started panning vertically, I don't think I would switch to horizontal, so the camera would still be stuck in the dock. I don't think it's necessary to switch from vertical to horizontal in the middle of a photo. Only if I take a photo horizontally, take another vertically and then return to the same horizontal position as the beginning. In this case yes. Perhaps to eliminate any parallax error with the L-bracket, we should make all the horizontal photos in the desired position and then the vertical ones, or vice versa. Maybe it's better if I see it on the field to get a better idea.

Ótimo acessório. Eu gostei. Só estou tentando pensar em uma situação que esse erro de paralaxe do L-Bracket iria atrapalhar. Acho que seria toda vez que eu tirasse a câmera do encaixe Arca Swiss. Mas se eu começar um panorama na vertical, acho que eu não iria trocar para a horizontal, então a câmera continuaria presa no encaixe. Acho que não é necessário trocar de vertical pra horizontal no meio de uma foto. Só se eu for fazer uma foto na horizontal, fazer outra na vertical e depois voltar pra mesma posição horizontal do início. Neste caso sim. Talvez pra eliminar qualquer erro de paralaxe com o L-bracket, devemos fazer todas as fotos horizontais na posição desejada e depois as verticais, ou vice-versa. Talvez seja melhor eu ver isso em campo pra ter uma ideia melhor.
It should be stated that Atoll was not the first company to come up with this idea. The first was the RR-110 by a Japanese company called K-ASTEC.
Thank you for the info!
Ale, voce disse que o encaixe é Swiss Arc, mas diz que funciona em qq tripe, como usaria num Manfrotto que nao é Swiss Arc? Sempre quis usar um L-bracket mas nunca achei um para usar nos meus manfrottos. Abraços .'.
Isso mesmo, na verdade no encaixe você consegue colocar 2 tipos de rosca ao invés de deslizar no encaixe arca-swiss. Existem adaptadores da Manfrotto para L-bracket
I prefer to stay with L-bracket, this tool is quicker you use 1 Lens, but when you change lenses (my situation) it's wayy slower and then L-bracek, it's even annoying .
Yes, ageed. ( especially on a A-Mount body )
Would be really useful in a situation where switching lenses during a session is a rare event..
Olá Alê, Esse colar serve na 70-200 F/4? Estou fazendo um up grade de lentes e achei interessante pensar neste colar.
Até serve sim, mas veja a possibilidade de adquirir o colar específico desta lente
Any idea which one I have to buy for Nikon d810?
I would go for the bigger one, the LS-75, because the LS-63 is mostly for Sony Cameras/lenses
Can this fit on a panasonic s5?
I can’t tell for sure, but if you look at the smaller size it might fit
Does it work with sony a6000 and Sigma 16mm f1,4?
I haven’t tested it on this combination, bear in mind that the lens diameter should not be larger than the Lens collar diameter.
Boa!!
Ale, pelo que entendi é um dispositivo universal. Certo? Eu tenho uma Canon RP com lente do kit (24-105) e gostaria de saber se você acha que este do link do aliexpress serve para mim. Muito obrigado e parabéns pelo vídeo! :)
Sim, é universal. No seu caso pode usar o link e selecione a opção LS-75. Abraços
Boa tarde Ale. Quero parabenizar pelo ótimo vídeo e pela dica. Agora tenho uma pequena duvida, esse colar server para quem usar o adaptador RF da Canon?
Serve sim, ele monta na câmera e não na lente ok?
@@AleRodrigues obrigado pela resposta e muito bom saber que esse Colar pode ser usado junto com o adaptador RF :)
Hi. By any chance. Have you tried mounting a 70200 on the canera with the lens ring attached?
Yes! It worked just fine on a 70-200 f/4
@AleRodrigues thanks for the info mate. Great help. Cheers and more power to the channel
@@projecthikaribyrhg You're welcome! I don't think the 70-200 f/2.8 would fit though...
@AleRodrigues I only have the f4 version so that's okay. The only problem I have now is I cant find anyone selling this exact product here in the Philippines 😅🤣😆
Looks like you can center your camera a lot better than the Atoll system but the website doesn't acknowledge my camera (Olympus OMD EM1) so could be a gamble if it fits or not. Wish they updated to show all compatible cameras.
I agree, at least they should’ve included the main dimensions, this way it would be easy to see if fits. Such a shame
Hi Mark, I have purchased the NiSi W72 for my OM5. It fits well.
@@jackmann8896 G’Day, funny that is exactly what I ended up with, the Australian reps also suggested NiSi W72 working well 👍
@Mark Hancock the wide zoom is a bit tight, but fits. Hope it works well for you
How can i use it with a battery grip?
I don’t think it is possible
It's very good but it doesn't work (neither this one nor the other brands like NISI ) with all lenses because of the diameter of some lenses (50-140 FUJIFILM / 16-55 Fuji) ...
Unfortunately not. I think they should have a larger size for larger lenses diameter, I believe the same apllies to GF-X lenses too
It's funny how atoll and now tons of copycats are promoting this thing as new. It not, I bought mine more than 10 years ago from an unfortunately unknown brand called ""custom brackets". Check it out. They did the "atoll" on a monopod (steady pod), and later had more success with the same idea but as a flash bracket. But if is just all the same
Yeah there are a lot of copycats today, thing is test it and see if works. Well durabilitywise I can’t speak of just yet. But I will take a look on your recommendation . Thanks
Why do you need this? I thought lens collars are for big heavy lenses.
To keep the lens axis on the center, better productivity on comercial architecture photography, due to fast change from landscape to portrait mode, while keeping the composition
not for me. too much of an obstruction around the lens for fine tuning focus, lens changing and easy carrying
Same for me
