if i have a canon 60d with 18-135 lens can i use this rail system and still mount a matte box on the end?

I have the canon T3I. We used this rail with a follow focus and a matte box. It works with the 18-55mm lens, but not quite long enough for the 55-250mm lens. The follow focus I glued an O-Ring to the follow focus gear, to friction drive the lens directly (without a gear on the lens). It also increased gear diameter to be able to flip the follow focus gearbox closer to the camera and therefore leave room for the matte box.

Do not think it will work with the 60D -- I have a 60D and the connector used for remote release is NOT the 3 pin used on other canon cameras but is round [looks like a small headphone connector]

long as there is a hole (which im sure there is) at the bottom of ur camera for the screw on the ball head of the tripod, u can. i use it for my canon 60D so im positive you can. really nice tripod; super light, compact & easy 2 carry around.

I have a ADM Adapter that uses a Vixen Rail atached to my 4" Telescope which is on my iOptron iEQ45 Telescope Mount.The Vello is attached to this setup and I can attach my Canon EOS 60D with a Canon 200mm f/2.8 L series Lens easily.However doing this with a tripod would depend on how strong the connecting screw was, plus how strong the tripod is.John Laning

Alternatively you can build a matte box for your camera and adjust per lens.Also this lens rocks, I use it on all my dSLRs for portraits and walking around. You can't afford not to have this lens.

It can, but the matte box is only fit for the 70mm lens .. So basically if you have the f2.8 or the f4 model it might not work too well as you won't have enough bar to have the shoulder part of the mount (as you'd have to back it up quite a bit to fit the 200 mm..

From my experience, the lens barrel has to be flat and not recessed in order to provide a mounting surface for the filter's self-adhesive metal ring. Probably not a good choice for your camera.

I have a 60D as well and it didn't fit. You would have to buy an adapter which I didn't do.

Yes you can. I have a 60D as well and use both flashes and a slave flash to.

The rail system on the sides will mate up with any of the Contour T-Rail mounts, and there is a screw attachment at the bottom like you see on standard camera tripods, so you could use other mounts (tripods, Midland universal mount, etc.) as well.

It should work just fine with the 60D. The body styles are not much different from the 7D or 5D (which I use) and the placement of the tripod mounting thread on the bottom of the camera. The jib is FANTASTIC, btw!

I don't know for sure, but on my Canon 60D, I was able to attach the bottom plate so that the vertical arm was just far enough from the camera body to allow me to slip the cable release into the port on the camera body. Assuming that the port on the 810 is on the left side of the camera (looking at the camera from the rear) and the tripod socket is centered or to the left side of the body, I suspect you could do the same. You may have to buy it and try it to know for sure. It's a good bracket for the money.

I would check Tamron's web site. They have mounting flanges for most popular camera bodies. They should have a listing. :)

Yes. I use the stock pic rail with a scope. You may not be able to put lense caps on if it's a low profile scope and you can't flip the sight up but that has nothing to do with the stock.

You would have to design your own mounting system, beyond the tripod mount. I did not get optional mounts in the box with my purchase.

No problem. I keep a canon 50d with 18-135 attached. There is still plenty of room for extras (hood, filters, etc). I carry my 400mm lens (with other stuff) in the upper compartment.

No. Look at the end of the lens that is not attached to your camera and it will have writen 72mm for the 28-135mm lens. This number is the size of the filter that you will need for this lens. You can also look up your lens on the canon site and look at the specifications for each canon lens that you own. If you have the same canon 28-135mm lens I own, then you need a 72mm filter.
