Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- Provides a balanced mounting point that reduces strain on the camera's lens mount.
- Allows quick rotation between landscape and portrait orientation without adjusting the tripod head.
- Lightweight at just 0.42 lb, adding minimal weight to the setup.
- Purpose-built fit ensures a snug, rattle-free connection to the RF100mm F2.8 L Macro lens.
👎 Cons
- Compatible only with the Canon RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM, so it cannot be used with other lenses.
- Adds a small amount of bulk around the lens barrel that may be noticeable during handheld shooting.
- Does not include an Arca-Swiss compatible foot, so a separate plate may be needed for quick-release systems.
- Relatively high price for a single-lens accessory.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which lens is the Canon Tripod Mount Ring Adapter E(B) designed for?
It is specifically designed for the Canon RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM lens.
Why would I need a tripod mount ring instead of mounting the camera body directly to the tripod?
With longer or heavier lenses like the RF100mm Macro, mounting at the lens rather than the camera body provides a more balanced center of gravity, reducing strain on the lens mount and preventing the setup from tipping forward.
Can I rotate the camera between landscape and portrait orientation while the ring is attached?
Yes. The tripod mount ring allows you to rotate the camera and lens assembly without needing to reposition the tripod head, making it easy to switch between orientations.
Does the mount ring need to be removed when not using a tripod?
It does not need to be removed, but many photographers choose to take it off for handheld shooting since it adds extra weight and bulk around the lens barrel.
