Chrosziel has released the new QuickLock Tripod Adapter Plate (401-150), replacing the original 401-130 VCT-14 plate.
The plate is suitable for all cameras which are equipped with wedge plate connections (V-mount) in the front and a mounting bracket behind the shoulder support. Two sets of 3/8″ & 1/4″ mounting threads are provided to mount the plate onto the tripod along the length of the plate.
The plate has a slim profile and is constructed out of aircraft-grade aluminium to be lightweight, weighing only 1.4 lb/636 grams.
The new VCT-14 compatible plate combines with the Chrosziel bridge plate (401-121) to add a sliding base as well as 15mm LWS rod mounts.
