Take your photography to the next level with the AP-500 Quick Release Replacement Foot, specifically designed for Nikon AF-S 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR Lenses. This durable and sturdy replacement foot is precision-machined to slide seamlessly into an Arca-Swiss style quick-release clamp, providing a reliable and secure connection for your lens.

With its versatile design, the AP-500 also features 1/4" and 3/8" tapped holes, making it compatible with non-quick-release tripod heads and monopods. This high-quality replacement foot is not just about compatibility; it also ensures safety and convenience. Like all our lens plates, the AP-500 is equipped with dual safety stops and flash bracket compatibility, enhancing your lens' stability and functionality.

Our design process sets us apart from other manufacturers. We utilize finite element analysis, backed by empirical data, to optimize the weight-to-stiffness ratio of our products. This meticulous approach ensures that the AP-500 offers superior rigidity and performance, without compromising on weight or aesthetics. Unlike other manufacturers who often reduce weight by removing material in ways that are convenient for the machining process or aesthetic design, we prioritize performance and quality, ensuring our products meet and exceed your expectations.

Choose the AP-500 Quick Release Replacement Foot for a long-lasting, secure, and stable support system for your Nikon AF-S 500mm f/5.6E PF ED VR lenses.
