Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Would this be a good choice for mounting on Monopod with 10# Camera/Lens combo?

A: The ProMediaGear Arca-Type Clamp for Straps, Holsters, and L-Brackets with Built-In Arca Dovetail does hold 10 lbs easily. It has a smaller 1/4" screw opening in the bottom, so you would need a monopod that has that screw. Most monopods have a 1/4" screw though.

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. How do I set this up using a Nikkor 200-500mm f/5.6 zoom with a foot plate ? Videos always show me using the plate on a camera not on the lens. I'm trying to go from Manfrotto fluid head to Arca foot on the lens ?

A: You could use the Nikon 200-500 lens and for example this plate on the foot Photo Clam PCN102UP Lens Plate for Nikon AF-S 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR BH #PHPCN102UP • MFR #PCN102UP

Q: 4. 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: 5. 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

Q: 6. 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: 7. 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: 8. 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: 9. Would this plate work on a Sachtler FSB8 head? Want to adapt to a Nikon DSLR with an L-bracket.

A: Hi!The fitting is the same, but the PM501 is shorter as Tony P said. I tested it on my Sachtler Ace and I could fasten it ... But I do not think I would dare to put a camera on it. There are other ways. Use the FSB8 plate and put another arca swiss compatible plate on that one ... /Jonas

Q: 10. 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 :(
