Leofoto CFC-01 Lens Collar for Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM Telephoto Lens
The Leofoto CFC-01 is a premium, multifunctional lens collar specifically engineered to enhance the stability, control, and overall functionality of the Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM telephoto lens. Tailored to fit the unique requirements of this lens, the CFC-01 is an ideal choice for photographers who demand precision and reliability from their equipment.
Construction & Materials
Built with high-strength 6061-T6 anodized aluminum, the CFC-01 offers exceptional durability while keeping the weight manageable, allowing photographers to carry it comfortably during long shoots. This robust construction provides a stable platform that minimizes vibrations and unwanted movements, ensuring sharper images, especially when shooting at extended focal lengths. The collar’s matte black finish is both stylish and non-reflective, reducing potential glare in bright conditions, while also adding to its sleek aesthetic.
Ergonomic Design & Handling
With dimensions of 135mm in height, 100mm in length, and a diameter of 81mm, the CFC-01 is meticulously crafted to complement the Canon RF 100-500mm lens seamlessly. One of its standout features is the ergonomic silicone grip foot, which provides a comfortable, slip-resistant surface for steady handling during prolonged shooting sessions. This grip is designed with user comfort in mind, reducing hand fatigue and making it easier to maintain a secure hold on the lens and camera combination.
Lens Protection & Smooth Rotation
The inner ring of the CFC-01 is lined with a matte black PVC material that serves to protect the lens barrel from scratches or abrasions during use. This PVC lining also enables smooth rotation, allowing the photographer to switch between landscape and portrait orientations effortlessly without risking damage to the lens. This feature is particularly useful for wildlife and sports photographers who often need to change orientation quickly to capture the action.
Quick-Release Compatibility
Designed with convenience in mind, the CFC-01 features an integrated Arca-style dovetail foot, which enables direct attachment to any Arca-compatible quick-release system. This eliminates the need for additional plates, streamlining the setup process and allowing photographers to mount or unmount their equipment swiftly. This dovetail design also enhances compatibility with a wide range of tripods, monopods, and other mounting accessories, making it a versatile addition to any photography kit.
Enhanced Stability & Mounting Options
For added flexibility, the CFC-01 is equipped with a QD (Quick Detach) socket and two safety screws at the bottom, which provide additional security when attached to a tripod or other support systems. Multiple mounting sockets, including two 3/8″ and four 1/4″ threads, offer a variety of connection points for different accessories, allowing photographers to customize their setup based on their shooting requirements. This versatility is especially useful for photographers who work in diverse environments and need quick adaptability.
Optimized for Telephoto Lenses
While the Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens is a powerful tool on its own, it can benefit from added support when capturing distant subjects. The CFC-01 provides the extra stability needed for telephoto shooting, especially when using heavier lenses or shooting in challenging conditions. By offering a secure base and reducing potential for shake, the CFC-01 enables photographers to achieve sharper, more detailed images even at maximum zoom.
The Leofoto CFC-01 lens collar is a well-engineered, functional accessory that meets the needs of professional and enthusiast photographers alike. With its high-quality materials, ergonomic design, and compatibility with Arca-Swiss systems, it delivers on all fronts—comfort, stability, and convenience. Whether shooting wildlife, sports, or any scenario where quick orientation changes and stability are crucial, the CFC-01 provides a reliable, user-friendly solution that enhances the capabilities of the Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens.
