The Tamron tripod collar improves balance when you mount a camera with a telephoto zoom lens on a tripod. It is removable and rotates so you can position the camera and lens quickly and accurately for the shot you want.
The collar is made for the Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD and the Tamron 50-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD telephoto zoom lenses. Because it matches these lenses, you get a tailored fit that helps shift the center of gravity to the tripod mount point and reduces stress on your camera body.
Attach the collar to the lens to move the tripod attachment point closer to the lens’ optical axis. Consequently, you improve stability and handling when using long focal lengths. In addition, the rotating mechanism lets you switch between landscape and portrait orientation without unclamping the lens from the tripod head.

Answer: The collar is specifically made for the Tamron 100-400mm f/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD and the Tamron 50-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di III VC VXD telephoto zoom lenses, providing a direct fit for those models.
Question: Will the Arca Swiss-type foot fit my tripod head?
Answer: The foot is designed to work with Arca-compatible tripod heads, so it mounts quickly and securely on heads that accept Arca-style plates and clamps.
Question: Can I remove the collar when I don’t need it?
Answer: Yes. The tripod collar is removable, so you can take it off the lens when you prefer to handhold or when packing the lens for travel.
Question: How does the rotating function help my shooting workflow?
Answer: The rotating collar lets you switch orientation without reattaching the lens to the tripod. This makes changing from landscape to portrait framing faster and more stable, which is helpful when composing shots at long focal lengths.
