Review Summary

I purchased this plate to mount a small refractor telescope (Televue 60) on camera tripod ball heads with Arca Swiss quick release clamps. The main reason for paying a premium price for a genuine Arca Swiss plate was to achieve a precision fit to the ball head clamps, compatible with the Arca Swiss plate I use on cameras. This worked well on my Markins Q3T ball head, but not so well with my ArcaSwiss Z1. Initially the new Arca Swiss plate slipped in the clamp, which held the camera plate fine. After extensive trial and error adjustment of the quick release clamp, I achieved a setting that would hold both plates securely. But it is clear that the plate dimensions are not identical, in spite of both coming from Arca Swiss. I’m satisfied with the new plate, but wish they were truly interchangeable.

I purchased the Acratech Long Lens head and it did not come with a quick release plate. This release plate is made especially for Nikon lens that have 2 screw holes in the lens holder assembly. Works great, very pleased. Finally no shake or shudder with my release plate or lens head.
