5.00 Inch Arca-Swiss Lens Plate with Dual QD Sockets & Strap Loops

Arca-Swiss Compatible 5.00" Lens Plate | Dual QD Sockets & Strap Loops

The 5.00-inch Arca-Swiss compatible lens plate is a precision-engineered mounting solution designed for photographers who demand maximum stability and versatile carrying options. Featuring dual stainless-steel Quick Detach (QD) sockets and integrated strap loops, this plate is optimized for high-end telephoto lenses and modular rail systems, providing a secure interface for both push-button QD swivels and Peak Design anchor users.


Quick Overview & Key Features

  • Extended 5.00" Length: Provides a generous adjustment range for balancing large telephoto lenses and finding the optimal center of gravity.
  • Dual Stainless-Steel QD Sockets: Integrated heavy-duty sockets allow for rapid, secure attachment of push-button strap systems like BlackRapid.
  • Dual Strap Loops: Built-in loops provide a robust anchor point for traditional camera straps and are ideal for Peak Design anchor links.
  • Double-Dovetail Profile: Bi-directional design allows you to mount Arca-type clamps on both the top and bottom surfaces simultaneously.
  • Safety-First Engineering: Equipped with two M3 safety-stop screws to prevent gear from sliding out of a partially opened clamp.
  • Premium Construction: Precision CNC-machined from solid 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum.
  • Durable Finish: Black hard-coat anodized surface for superior abrasion and corrosion resistance.
  • Made in the USA: Manufactured to professional tolerances with high-grade stainless steel hardware.

Product Description

This 5.00-inch lens plate is engineered to solve the balance and carrying challenges of professional wildlife and sports photography. The extended length offers significant fore-aft travel within a quick-release clamp, ensuring that heavy lens setups remain perfectly balanced on tripods or gimbal heads.

The core of this plate's innovation is its multi-mount carrying system. It features two integrated stainless-steel QD sockets, a system trusted for decades by military and law enforcement for its anti-accidental-release design. Additionally, the inclusion of two strap loops makes this plate uniquely versatile, serving as a perfect mounting base for photographers using Peak Design anchors or standard sling straps.

The double-dovetail profile provides incredible modularity, enabling you to build complex rigs by stacking clamps or accessories on either side of the rail. Each plate features a captive-style slot for adjustable positioning, ensuring the mounting hardware stays with the plate. Precision-crafted in the USA from solid aluminum and finished with a durable hard-coat anodize, this plate delivers the technical excellence and lifelong structural integrity your gear deserves.
