Customer Reviews
Good to have extras
The one that came with my tripod head ended up permanently attached to my long lens, since said lens is really too heavy to use without a tripod or monopod. I bought a couple of extra plates to use with other cameras/lenses.
I agree with the person who said this plate can be hard to line up correctly. I'm a mechanical engineer, and usually pretty good with spatial relationships, but sometimes it takes me awhile to get the thing on. If you look really closely, there's an arrow on the plate to help you, but I suspect a lot of people don't notice it. It's difficult to see in low light - which is, of course, exactly when you want to use a tripod.
I finally took some nail polish and painted a little dot on the edge of the plate and on the edge of tripod head while they were connected correctly. Now it's much easier to orient the plate and fit it in right. I just line up the dots.
Integral accessery.
Safety, security and no slippage.
Lock it in and be confident that your equipment is secure.
Zero ancillary movement and strong enough to hold DSLR, battery grip with batteries and long tele-zoom without worry or concern.
Great price too!
Good luck!
Great to have a spare
Tripod plates are like socks - they both disappear to the same place! This plate attaches very securely to the camera and the rubber pad prevents rotation under the weight of a telephoto.
