Replacement Foot for Sony 400–800mm

 

πŸ¦… Hejnar Photo Replacement Foot for Sony 400–800mm: Stability Meets Precision

Sony’s FE 400–800mm f/6.3–8 G OSS lens is a super-telephoto marvel, built for wildlife, sports, and outdoor shooters who demand reach and clarity. But with great length comes great leverage—and that’s where the Hejnar Photo Arca-Type Replacement Foot steps in.

πŸ”§ Why Replace the Stock Foot?

The factory foot on Sony’s 400–800mm lens is functional, but not optimized for serious tripod or monopod use. The Hejnar replacement foot offers:

  • Arca-Swiss compatibility for seamless integration with ball heads, gimbals, and clamps.
  • Lower profile and improved balance for better center-of-gravity alignment.
  • Captive 1/4-20 screw mount for secure attachment.
  • QD (Quick Detach) socket option for sling-style strap mounting.

Whether you're tracking a bald eagle or shooting motorsports from the sidelines, this foot delivers the kind of stability and modularity that professionals expect.

πŸ“ Precision Engineering

Made in the USA from 6061-T6 aluminum, the Hejnar foot is:

  • CNC-machined for exact tolerances.
  • Black hard coat anodized for durability and corrosion resistance.
  • Lightweight yet rigid, minimizing vibration and flex during long exposures or fast action bursts.

It’s compatible with top-tier support systems including RRS, Markins, Wimberley, Kirk, Acratech, Photo Clam, Foba, Jobu Designs, and Vanguard ABH Series.

🧰 Ideal Use Cases

  • Wildlife photography: Long lens setups on gimbals or tripods.
  • Sports and action: Quick repositioning with Arca clamps.
  • Field work: Sling-ready with QD socket for mobile setups.
  • Studio and macro: Precision alignment with nodal rails or macro stages.

πŸ“¦ What’s Included

  • One replacement foot for Sony FE 400–800mm lens
  • Captive mounting screw
  • Hex key for installation

🚚 Shipping & Availability

Hejnar Photo offers free USPS First Class shipping with tracking. For time-sensitive orders, expedited options like FedEx, UPS, or Express Mail are available at checkout.

If you’re serious about maximizing the performance of your Sony 400–800mm lens, upgrading to a Hejnar foot is a no-brainer. It’s not just a replacement—it’s a precision upgrade.
