Explore the world of photography with the 3POD Arca-Swiss Quick Release Plate, a trusted industry standard for secure and swift camera mounting. This large 2.75in / 70mm version not only provides the stability benefits inherent to the Arca system but also offers the flexibility of variable positioning that a longer plate provides. Crafted by the renowned Swiss camera equipment manufacturer, Arca-Swiss Phototechnik AG, this quick-release mounting system was independently developed for their tripod heads. The system is ingeniously designed with 38 mm wide mounting plates featuring a 45-degree dovetail rail on the sides. These are clamped on the tripod head receiver with a screw-fastened grabber plate, ensuring a secure and reliable connection.The popularity of the Arca-Swiss B-1 ballhead in the 1990s led to a surge in the production of plates and the inclusion of Arca-Swiss style (also known as Arca-type) receivers on tripod heads by many companies. The 3POD Arca plates and receivers are made of machined aluminum and are attached to cameras or lenses with a 1/4in-20 pitch screw, demonstrating their commitment to quality and durability.One of the standout features of the 3POD Arca plates and receivers is the implementation of crucial failsafes. If the receiver clamp is loosened slightly, the plate can slide out of the QR receiver completely. To counter this, grooves are added to the receiver, and small protrusion pegs are added to the plate beneath. This design ensures that even if the clamp loosens, the stops limit the movement of the plate, preventing a complete disconnect and safeguarding your valuable equipment.Beyond its use in photography, the Arca-type dovetail rail has gained popularity in shooting competitions such as the Precision Rifle Series for attaching auxiliary equipment like bipods, tripods, etc. The ARCA rail holds an advantage over traditional firearm mounts, such as the Picatinny rail, as it allows for stepless sliding adjustment, offering versatility and convenience to its users. Experience the blend of high-quality, reliability, and versatility with the 3POD Arca-Swiss Quick Release Plate, a must-have tool for every photographer and videographer.
