The Century Precision Optics 0VS-TCSS-00 is an affordable telephoto attachment sunshade. The 105mm clamp-on attachment fits many 1.6x and 2x telephoto converters.

A slip on connection system allows this sunshade to slide onto the 105mm outside of the lens or lens accessory; it then tightens with a screw to provide security.

Like any sunshade, this unit provides protection from hard light and glare. This accessory works specifically with telephoto attachments from Century.

Q: 1. if this is an A mount will this work with an A200?

A: Yes, the Laowa 105mm f/2 Smooth Trans Focus lens will work with the Sony A200. However, due to the A200's older autofocusing system, AF performance will likely be limited by the camera.

Q: 2. It looks like an AC power supply does not come with the camera. Is that true? We plan to use this monitor with a permanently mounted camera that does not come with its own monitor. If it does not come with its own AC power, what product should we use to accomplish this? Thanks.

A: There is a 12v DC input on the back. So any power adaptor would work,Thank you

Q: 3. I want to know if this lens has an AE chip built-into in order to get focus confirmation as well as the use of Auto/P/A/S/M shooting modes due to the transmission of lens data to the camera? Thanks

A: The Venus Optics Laowa 105mm f/2 Smooth Trans Focus Lens for Nikon F have no electronic contacts nor an AE chip, so there would be no exposure information, EXIF data, metering, or focus confirmation information transmitted to the camera. This is a fully manual lens.

Q: 4. Does it work with focus assist on A7RII and a6500? Does it transmit data to the camera?

A: 1. Yes, it is easy to focus manually using focus assist etc on my A6000.2. No information is transmitted to my A6000.It produces lovely portraits, with a beautiful background.

Q: 5. Is this compatible with a Canon XF705, with a 58mm diameter front thread. If so/not, can I use a step up/down ring to make it compatible? Just trying to get 2X with the XF705. Thanks!

Q: 8. Can I use this on the BlackMagic Design URSA 4K 10 screen?

A: Well I found the sticking parts of the unit do not allow the monitor to close properly after I installed the unit. I had to find an other way to attach it. I believe a sun protector with a band that you can remove at will would be best. I do not recommend this product.

Q: 9. If the apperture (fstop) and Tstop are controlled separately, does that mean i can be at F2.0 (f2 background blue) while at t8 (t8 light input) ?

A: Short answer, a qualified yes. This lens has beautiful bokeh, and is very easy to use on an e-mount camera. There are two separate aperture rings that produce a single final aperture. The widest final aperture occurs at f2.0 and T3.2. When you set f2.0 and ratchet the T-stop from 3.2 to 8, the final aperture does decrease continuously. The f-stops click, but the T-stops are smooth. At T8, you won't see any real change in the final aperture above about f4. At T3.2, all f stops are useful and the final aperture changes as it clicks through the f-stops. In summary, the T and f stops both allow you to control the final aperture, but it does not magically disconnect bokeh and light transmission.

Q: 10. Is this compatible with Sony a7rii?

A: Yes it is compatible. Lars D. covers the technical details well. it is a superb focal length for portraits and for isolating the subject from the background. It does take a bit of getting used to ... the effects of the two diaphragms and manual operation, but it is very worth it.
