You will also need to tilt the camera and lens down in order to rest the lens on the bar. The velcro strap is also too long and will need to be wrapped twice around your lens.

Q: 4. Is it compatible with camcorders as well as SLR's?

A: Well, I didn't use it with camcorders. However, the general idea is to support the body and the lens in a manner not to cause much pressure on the mount. If that would help in recording then let it be! But I doubt controlling it would be much of an easy task. I don't know the size of camcorders, but the total expansion of this arm is somewhere around 40cm; would that be good for camcorders?

Q: 9. Will this be compatible with a Canon 70-200 f/2.8?

A: For this specific combo, I do not have an answer. However, I have a collection of a number of classic SLR's and lenses and have this attachment. While a little cumbersome, have found it very useful for a number of systems and prime and zoom lenses, including Olympus, Canon FD, Minolta MD, and several Nikons. I would purchase it again and believe it will probably work for the 2.8 Canon. Primes work better than zooms I have tried. All my equipment is manual focus so have no comment for AF. It's a jury-rig, but I find it helpful to wrap a thick rubber band around the zoom barrel to help keep the same zoom settings in place.

Q: 10. Would this work for the Tamron 18-400 telephoto attached to a Nikon D3200 or Z6 II?

A: The Manfrotto 293 Telephoto Lens Support with Quick Release is only compatible with lenses 7.9" to 11.6" in length; the Tamron 18-400mm lens is only 4.88" long, so it is not compatible with this device.
