Great addition to an amazing camera!

Great addition to the R3! I purchased it to allow for the camera strap to be connected at the bottom instead of the top. To me this solved the issue of the camera strap falling across the lens when going quickly from landscape to portrait mode.

Tried several similar products, and this is the one

Well manufactured, slim profile and perfect fit. Highly recommended for somebody who wants a minimal bracket that offers body protection. Easy battery access.

Nikon Z6 - works SO well

I got this plate so that it extends the grip to support my pinky finger - i know its a silly reason to get this but it makes it feel that much solid in my hand its totally worth it. It actually makes me feel better knowing the bottom of the camera is protected against dings / not worried about placing on surfaces etc. You can access the battery compartment with no issues and it fits perfectly.

Review of RRS baseplate for Sony a7r3

Works great on the sony a7r3. What I didn't know at time of purchase is that when the plate is connected to the camera, the battery lid cannot be opened. The plate must be removed to replace the battery. There is a video that describes taking off the battery lid, and replacing it to the RR base plate, and this works, but then the RR baseplate is more or less a permanent fixture to the camera.

Perfect for an X-T3

While specifically engineered for the Olympus OM-D E-M1X camera, the Really Right Stuff BOEM1X base plate offers a blend of durability, reliability, and professional-grade quality. Precision-machined from solid blocks of 6061-T6 aluminum, this sturdy base plate ensures a secure and precise fit for your camera, eliminating any risk of twisting between the camera and the plate.

Designed to be fully compatible with any 1.5" standard dovetail (RRS standard) quick-release system, this high-quality base plate features meticulously contoured anti-twist flanges. This unique design not only guarantees a perfect fit but also enhances the stability of your Olympus camera, making it an ideal accessory for professional photographers.

The Really Right Stuff BOEM1X-L plate stands out with its two dovetail mounting surfaces, shaped like an 'L'. One surface is located at the bottom of your camera, and the other on the left-hand side. This innovative design allows you to effortlessly switch between landscape and portrait orientations without the need to recompose your shot, saving you valuable time during shoots.

Moreover, the L-plate ensures that your Olympus OM-D E-M1X remains centered directly above the tripod's apex, thereby maintaining optimal stability. This feature is particularly beneficial for capturing high-quality, blur-free images and videos.

The base plate utilizes a custom machined 1/4"-20 threaded, captive-style mounting screw that threads seamlessly into the tripod mounting socket of your Olympus camera body. This design ensures a secure and reliable attachment of your camera to the base plate.

As part of a modular system, the BOEM1X base plate functions as a traditional camera mounting plate but also offers the added flexibility of accepting a separate dedicated vertical L-component. This feature allows you to create a fully modular L-plate with two dovetail mounting surfaces, providing you with more options for attaching accessories to your camera. The dedicated vertical L-component can be purchased separately or as a set package with the base plate.
