My Sigma 170-500 in Nikon mount is a bitch to get on a tripod. Its the
battery compartment on the D1, D1H and D2H that get in the way, using
the lens collar.
I found a work around, but i use the lens so infrquently, i forget
what i did,:-)

I had one of those lenses once upon a time too, in Nikon mount. It was
a pain to fit even to some older film bodies and on some tripod heads,
even without the flash overhang. Clumsy tripod mount arrangement.
I never used the lens much as a result and sold it with a body that it
did fit reasonably
RANT The Vivitar S1 600mm Solid Cat won't mount on the K20D! Why,
Because the damned pup up flash overhang is 1/16th of an inch too long!
I understand, Pentax isn't responsible for fitting lenses they didn't
make to their cameras, but it's just so damned annoying. It's the
longest prime lens

Time for the small extension
I'd prefer a bastard file or a rasp to the overhang. It's only plastic
after all.

Sounds like somebody needs a K-7.

Like a lot of long lenses it focuses a bit beyond infinity, so the
answer is maybe...
