LensCoat LC800 Reviews

tricky to put on but worth it

Lens cover comes in pieces with each one needing to be put on. I ended up turning each piece inside out, sliding each on into place with the leading edge of the piece touching the first section to be covered. Then with some effort you turn it correct side out. This way your slide it on with the material and NOT the rubber touching the lens. With the foot of the 800mm lens, I had to unscrew and remove it to get the piece on over the mounting plate the foot attaches to. A BIT tricky to get the plastic window lined up but it does work. I got a used 9+ version of the lens and had to return it as the focus mech kept trying to focus and it had a buzzing noise that didn't stop. I ended up saying, F it and got new. THAT version was quiet as a mouse. For the $$ I spent, I want this lens to stay pristine and this covering will, I hope, do just that. I gave it 5 stars as other than being a bit tough to get on, the item itself is pretty straight forward and does as advertised.

a bit expensive for quality, cover over buttons a negative

I suspect it will protect from scratches otherwise not much else.
