Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is the arca-swiss head removable (replace with a Wimberley gimbal)? Don't want to use an adapter.

A: According to ProMedia Gear's website, the Arca clamp/head is not removable :(

Q: 2. Will the plate accommodate 3/8" mounting screws?

A: Yes, the ProMediaGear 8" Arca-Type double dovetail plate adapts to two 1/4-20 Mounting Screws and optional can accept two 3/8-16 screws.

Q: 3. Will the PXC1 mount to Sony FE 4/70-200 Macro G OSS II?

A: No, the ProMediaGear PXC1 6" Arca-Type Compatible Plate with Integrated Clamp is not really designed for long lenses. But to attach the camera. Like in this photo, https://bhpho.to/45pazkZ.

Q: 4. Will this clamp screw right on to the stem of a 488rc2? Will the oem manfrotto clamp screw off the stem?

A: The 488RC2 has a 3/8 -16 stem. The C60 clamp will not fit directly. You need a different insert (C3816INSERT) from promediagear. I did not like the quality, knob rotation is rough, mounting surface wasn't flat.

Q: 5. Did anyone try this with Manfrotto MV500AH Video head? Will it work?

A: Yes, it does. The PM501L is a little longer than the default 501 plate but it is the same specifications. There is a shorter version available (PM501 without the L) here: https://bhpho.to/3ryJpFM

Q: 6. can i use this product on a Vanguard SBH-100?

A: They had a shipment from Pro Media where the insert was fitted with Loc Tite so you could not remove it, beware

Q: 7. This plate can hold a Manfrotto 200PL Quick Release Plate (instead of a arca-type)?

A: No, it only accepts an arca type plate.

Q: 8. Will this rail be compatible with the RRS B2-LR-II clamp and held properly?

A: The Really Right Stuff B2-LR-II Lever-Release Clamp (60mm) will hold the ProMediaGear Nodal Rail Plate with Arca-Type Clamp (8") tightly.

Q: 9. Will this adapter work to convert a Gitzo G2272M head to Arca Swiss L bracket?

A: No, the gitzo quick release receiver is incompatible with the manfrotto 501 series plates that ProMedia uses on this adapter. You could consider attaching an adapter like Kirk QRC-2.6 Arca-Type Quick Release Clamp to your Gitzo quick release plate by way of the 1/4" thread you would normally attach to your camera. You'll also need a 1/4" to 3/8" Tripod Adapter/Bushing. This is not an ideal solution because you can still get loosening and twist where the Gitzo plate attaches to the Kirk adapter.

Q: 10. Will this plate fit a Manfrotto 502AH head? If so, is there a diagram or vid of how to attach it (I can't figure it out), if not, can you please link me to one that will fit? There is not one clearly listed as compatible. Thanks!

A: This clamp/plate will allow you to attach an Arca Swiss style plate to your Manfrotto 502 head. In addition to this clamp, you will need an Arca style plate to attach to this clamp. Click the link below to view the plate; https://bhpho.to/3fBbHsv
