BRIAN K : Will the F-9 flash bracket fit any arca swiss plate or only Wimberly manf plates. I have the old style that only fits Wimberly size plates not all arcra style are compatible.?
Shopper : i have a manfrotto quick release. What extra plate do I need?DOUGLAS M : The Wimberly F-1 mounts to Arca-Swiss plates. If your head does not accept Arca-Swiss perhaps there is an adapter made by or for your specific type head. Acra-Swiss is the standard and it doesn't look like that is going to change.

About Wimberley F-1

An essential tool for photographers, the Wimberley F-1 Telephoto Combo Flash Bracket offers unparalleled versatility and stability for telephoto lens users. This innovative bracket is part of the Shape-Shifter Modular Flash Bracket System, renowned for its modular design that allows for a customizable setup to suit various shooting requirements. The system's components are designed to be compact, easily fitting into your camera bag without taking up excessive space when not in use.

Crafted for durability and ease of use, the Wimberley F-1 connects seamlessly without the need for any tools, ensuring a swift and secure assembly. Its robust construction guarantees that once assembled, the components will not slip, twist, or creep, even during the most dynamic and action-packed photography sessions. This steadfast reliability is crucial for capturing sharp, well-lit images in fast-paced environments.

The bracket's compatibility with the Arca-Swiss type quick-release system underscores its commitment to professional standards. This system is widely recognized as the industry benchmark for macro and telephoto photography, offering a secure and stable connection between your camera equipment and the bracket.

The Combo 1 configuration is particularly well-suited for lenses that feature a tripod collar and are equipped with an Arca-type plate. Additionally, the inclusion of the Module 8 perpendicular plate expands the bracket's utility, enabling it to be used with camera bodies as well. With the adjustable Module 1, photographers can fine-tune the vertical distance between the flash and the lens, as well as position the flash off-center relative to the lens for more creative lighting options.

Unlike other products on the market, the Wimberley Shape Shifter components are designed with captive parts. This thoughtful feature ensures that the components remain attached, eliminating the risk of accidental detachment due to over-loosening while out in the field. This attention to detail reflects Wimberley's commitment to providing photographers with reliable, professional-grade equipment that enhances their shooting experience.

The Wimberley F-1 Telephoto Combo Flash Bracket is a testament to the brand's dedication to quality and functionality, making it an indispensable accessory for serious photographers looking to elevate their telephoto and macro photography with expertly managed lighting.
