The Arca-Swiss/Manfrotto-Type Height-Adjustable Mounting Plate Set from SmallRig adds quick release and height adjustment capabilities to your gimbal or tripod-mounted camera configuration for quick transitions between handheld and stabilized shooting. Included in the set is a Manfrotto-type 501-compatible bottom plate, an Arca-swiss top plate with two 1/4"-20 mounting screws, and a height-adjustable base. The base gives you 0.8" of vertical adjustment and can support both vertical and horizontal camera mounting of the bottom plate.

A single 15mm rod clamp supports the integration of rod-based lens support accessories. The Arca-swiss plate is compatible with DJI RS series gimbals for quick transitions between handheld, stabilizer, and tripod setups. 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads at the bottom of the Manfrotto-type plate allow you to attach it to a tripod of your choice. A two-stage locking lever ensures your camera remains secure.
