Product Description

The Mini DSLR Baseplate was designed in tandem with & includes the Gorilla Plate V2. The Gorilla Plate V2 acts as the quick release to take your camera off the main section of the Mini DSLR Baseplate. It attaches to your camera with a single ¼ 20 screw. The quick release plate & base connect via a 15mm port & a locking pin for a sturdy connection.

The Mini DSLR Baseplate includes a pair of 4.5” female/female 15mm rods that slide into the front of the plate & are clamped with an Allen screw. Move these rods up & down to accommodate your accessories such as a Matte-Box. These rods are threaded to accept male rod extensions for longer lenses & other accessories.

The Mini DSLR Baseplate has two lightweight spaced threaded rod ports at the rear of the unit. Add any length male/female rods to support a Shoulder Pad. A 15mm female rod port can also be found at the left side of the unit to attach a or Zamerican articulated arm to hold an EVF or other devices. Also a 15mm rod port, which tightens with a red quick release ratcheting lever, can also be found on the underside of the unit.

PLEASE NOTE: The Mini DSLR Baseplate is only compatible with small body DSLRs & Mirrorless Cameras such as Sony a7 series, Canon 5DMK2/3/4, T2i/3i/4i, 7D, 6D, Nikon D800, D3000, & Panasonic GH3/4/5. It is not ideal when a battery grip is in place or for tall body cameras like the Nikon D3s or Canon 1DC/X because the rods may not be able to adjust to the correct height for centring a Matte-Box.
