Carry this Wooden Camera Micro Touch and Go System for Select Sachtler Fluid Heads to add a touch and go-style plate to your tripod or other mounting platform, or keep the plate as a spare for use with select Sachtler fluid heads. The plate matches the Sachtler Touch and Go Plate S, but it is lighter than your standard plate owing to the recesses designed into the plate. The plate also features rubber anti-twist pads and a removable locating pin.

The QR mechanism features multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting holes in its base so you can mount it on a variety of tripods, tripod plates, or mounting platforms. The QR mechanism is spring-loaded, allowing you to simply drop the plate into the mechanism and the mechanism will snap into locked mode. To remove the plate, pull the lever while simultaneously pressing down on the side release button.
