To get a mount for it though should be easy enough, via eBay and Amazon, however be sure of the model. I think there were 3 available in the last 10-15 years (ie suitable for most Nikon digital cameras, I am assuming it is digital of course). I cannot remember the third, but if I recall there was a G, an ED and maybe more recently a G VR version. I haven't dealt with or followed Nikon gear for over 5 years though.

It has a tripod mount, the base of the mount has 2 screw holes and with it being a heavy lens I thought perhaps there was a more robust fixing between the lens and the tripod.
