LensCoat Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S I Lens Cover Review

The LensCoat Classic cover is a fitted neoprene layer for the Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S I. Clear plastic windows over the autofocus controls and the distance scale, so you can see and use them with the cover on. It adds protection from scrapes and bumps and breaks up the outline of the lens, with a small opening on the final segment that lines up with the lens’s white dot indicator for mounting; it is not a hard case or a weather seal.

Nikon AF-S 600mm f/4 (I) owners who want a fitted neoprene cover with access windows for the lens controls.
You own a different lens, need a padded carry case, or expect a front-element protector or a weather-rated shell.
A long lens is expensive and exposed. The LensCoat Classic cover for the Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S I wraps a super-telephoto prime in neoprene to protect against scrapes, bumps and dust, and helps break up its outline in the field. We recommend it for Nikon AF-S 600mm f/4 (I) owners who shoot outdoors and want a fitted cover.
Made for this lens
LensCoat lists this cover specifically for the Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S I. Clear plastic windows sit over the autofocus controls and the distance scale, so you can see and use them with the cover on. It also includes a small opening on the final segment that lines up with the lens’s white dot indicator for mounting.
Neoprene, concealment and fit
The cover is made from premium neoprene, which LensCoat says works as a thermal barrier so the lens is more comfortable to handle in hot and cold temperatures. By breaking up the recognizable shape of the lens, it also helps make your gear less noticeable to wildlife. The Classic version is a fixed, glove-like slip-on fit; LensCoat also sells a V2 Velcro quick-wrap style that is easier to remove for cleaning, and a combo pack with both.
What it does not do
A neoprene cover adds protection against surface scrapes and bumps. It is not a hard case, it does not seal the lens against weather and LensCoat makes no drop-test claim. Our telephoto lens cover guide covers how it fits with caps, hoods and cases.
Buying recommendation
Choose the LensCoat cover if you own the Nikon 600mm f/4 AF-S I and want a fitted cover with control windows. Skip it if you own a different lens or want a padded case.
