Product Description

The D045 replacement plate is a vital professional upgrade for Nikon Z series shooters utilizing F-mount lenses via the FTZ adapter. This plate set is designed to provide a rock-solid Arca-Swiss compatible foundation directly on the adapter foot, which helps relieve stress on the camera mount when using heavier F-mount glass.

One of the most advantageous features for mirrorless users is its specialized L-bracket compatibility. In most configurations, the D045 can be installed on the FTZ adapter while an L-bracket remains on the camera body, with no mechanical interface between the two. This allows you to engage the FTZ plate directly into your tripod head or gimbal without the time-consuming process of removing your camera's primary mounting hardware.

The plate is designed for versatility in the field, allowing the setup to be mounted into a quick-release clamp with the jaws running in either perpendicular or parallel orientations. This is ideal for fine-tuning the balance of your gear on various tripod heads and gimbal systems. Precision-machined in the USA, the D045 features a 0.65-inch thickness plus a 1/8-inch ridge for added stability and security.
