Works great
Turned my old gitzo into an arca compatible tripod. Perfect fit to a proprietary head
Best clamp I've used
I purchased a number of different arca swiss type clamps to test out as I replace my Manfrotto RC2 clamps and plates. From a price/performance standpoint, this was the best of all I tried by far. Love the tongue-in-pocket design and the captive knob. The grooves work well to keep the plates from sliding out, a great thing when your're holding $4k of camera equipment in the clamp.
From transforming your old tripod to enhancing your photography equipment, the Wimberley C-12 Quick Release Clamp is a versatile and essential tool for every photographer. With a length of 2.5 inches (6.4 cm), this upgraded model replaces the previous C-10, offering improved performance and compatibility.
This Quick Release Clamp is designed to accommodate a range of mount diameters from 3/8"-16 to 1/4"-20, making it a perfect fit for various proprietary heads, including Gitzo and Manfrotto RC2. It's an ideal solution for those looking to upgrade their equipment to Arca-Swiss type clamps.
The C-12 Quick Release Clamp stands out with its unique tongue-in-pocket design and captive knob, which not only enhance its functionality but also its ease of use. The meticulously designed grooves work effectively to prevent plates from sliding out, ensuring the secure handling of your valuable camera equipment.
The package includes a selection of fasteners and comprehensive installation instructions, making the setup process straightforward and hassle-free. Whether you're a professional photographer or a hobbyist, the Wimberley C-12 Quick Release Clamp is a reliable addition to your gear, promising stability and security for your camera equipment.
Wimberley C-12 Features
- Tongue-in-Pocket Design: Wimberley clamps have a unique tongue-in-pocket design that protects internal parts from dust and grit. The tongues are nearly twice as long as those on conventional Arca-Swiss style clamps
- Captive Knob: There is a stop screw located on the end of the stud. This screw keeps the knob and internal workings of the clamp captive
- Special Grooves: Two shallow channels extend from the sides of the clamp and stop just short of the central tapped hole. These channels allow greater fore-aft adjustment when using the safety stops on Wimberley quick release plates
