Further to the release of the custom Replacement Foot for Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II with Arca-Swiss® dovetail last October, Sunwayfoto has also proceeded in releasing a Replacement Foot Plate for the same lens.
The replacement foot comes as a stronger alternative to the original Nikon lens foot plate which seems to fail under stress.
Bent or torn plates have been reported both on the older Nikon AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR and the newer G ED VR II lenses.
The Lens Foot Plate
The LFM-N1 adheres to the same quality CNC machining from lightweight aircraft grade Aluminium as well as exemplary finishing and satin-black anodizing, as all Sunwayfoto products.

Using a small Phillips screw driver the LFM-N1 can be screwed in place of the original plate, which of course has to be removed from the lens collar first. |

When the Sunwayfoto LFM-N1 Replacement Foot Plate is shown on the Nikon AF-S 70-200mm f/2.8 VR II from the side the extra thickness of the plate is obvious. |
