Mekingstudio Rubber Camera Lens Cover Coat Protective Camo Cover for Nikon 200-500mm F5.6 VR - Forest Brown Camo

Definitely not the same quality as the big brand but half the price. Some of the seams are already coming unraveled at the ends and the camo material has slightly separated from the base on one band. Also, I have no idea why they would put heavy clear plastic over the switches because you definitely can not move the switches with that heavy plastic cover over them. It still works though and does the job for half the price so I won't be returning it.Update: The seller contacted me and asked me to explain in detail my complaints. I did and he said he would consider improvements on future models. He also offered to send me a whole new kit for free and told me to keep it as spares or replacements.. The new one still has a few flaws but I replaced the defective parts and now have spare parts as well. Fantastic seller and extremely helpful and open to suggestions!

I'll confess that I purchased this particular camo cover for the price. I own several other neoprene covers from other mfg. for my long lenses and recording equipment and for this lens others are asking almost twice the price. Functionally, this cover appears adequate for now. It fits pretty well and provides protection in the field. This said it isn't that great in a number of respects. Looking closely at each piece one finds that the material is not cut with the precision found on other brands. One edge of the largest piece that fits over the hood is noticeably wavy along one side. This is also true, though not as noticeable with one of the other "rings". There are several penetrations incorporated in this cover to accommodate the barrel lock and lens controls for focus and O.S.. Most feature a sewn in plastic window. On my example the plastic is wrinkled and the seams crooked. To me having a transparent window is less desirable than a deployable flap since adjustment of the controls isn't really practical through the sewn shut windows. There is another plastic window covering the distance scale displayed at the top of the lens barrel. While I don't routinely use this if I did it would be rendered useless by the glare of the plastic, and the rough sewn edge makes it look cheap. The barrel lock in contrast is accessible through a hole cut in the neoprene, but the amount of material left at each edge of the hole is so minimal I can't imagine it lasted but a few days use. At minimum there should be reinforcement around this hole. Though in the end this cover is something of an insult to an expensive lens I'm going to keep it until I can shop for a better quality one. You do really get what you pay for in these "coats". I suspect that they are more difficult to make than they appear.

Issues:#1 - I would not agree with the easy to install statement. It was a very tight fit and took quite a while to get it over the lens. I was thinking / hoping many of the pieces would've gone on and off with Velcro. If I ever take it off, I'm not sure I'll go through the effort to put it back on (as I'm likely to just cut if off).#2 - The plastic see through portion that covers the AF and VR switches didn't let me with each switch them on and off, so I cut the plastic part off with a knife. Also that open area is slightly larger than it needs to be.#3 - The part that you stick to the lens collar was too long. Will need to cut it myself.This is really just my review of trying to put it on my lens and initial impression. Just arrived today in the mail and haven't used it out in the field to give my opinion on that use.

The product arrived without instructions and with numbered labels for all of the 9 parts. The labels, however had all fallen off during shipping. Also, it came with 10 parts - obviously poorly packed. I attempted to return it and received an email with an instruction sheet (barely English) that should have been included in the first place. So, after going through the whole process of installing it a second time, it's obvious that the parts are poorly cut which leave gaps. Now, customer service demands a picture of the last part because it doesn't fit and keeps popping off of the lens. Horrible service, which is not a surprise because the product is shoddy. It's not that you get what you pay for in this case, it's a complete waste of money.

It took a month from order to delivery. Product arrived intact but with no instructions. Used the photos on the Amazon page to match pieces to lens. Another case of "getting what you pay for."

Se ajusta muy bien al lente. Ha presentado algunos problemas en la terminación de las costuras porque no son terminadas para que no se suelten.

A bargain for half the price of other sleeves. The only thing that kept me from saying 5 stars is the piece that fits closest to the camera does not stay on very well.

Nice quality, fit as described. nice look
