Manfrotto 500PLONG Long Quick Release Video Plate

Achieve flawless stability and perfect balance for your video setup with the Manfrotto 500PLONG Long Quick Release Video Plate, an essential accessory for professional videographers and discerning filmmakers. Designed for use with Manfrotto fluid video heads, this extended plate is the ultimate solution for managing challenging camera rigs and achieving smooth, cinematic motion. If you work with cameras that have an unconventional weight distribution, the 500PLONG is engineered specifically to provide the control and precision you need.

This long version of the standard plate allows perfect balance for camcorders with unusual weight distribution caused by long telescopic lenses or heavy batteries. The increased length provides a greater range of fore-and-aft adjustment, enabling you to find the precise center of gravity for your entire setup. This meticulous balancing is critical for executing fluid pans and tilts without drift or backlash, ensuring your footage remains steady and professional. Supplied with 1x 1/4” and 1x adapter from 1/4’’ to 3/8” camera screws and an anti-rotation pin, this plate offers wide-ranging compatibility and enhanced security straight out of the box.

Crafted from high-quality, durable aluminum, the 500PLONG is both lightweight and incredibly robust, built to withstand the demands of on-location shoots and rigorous studio use without adding unnecessary bulk to your gear. Its solid construction guarantees a reliable and secure connection between your camera and tripod head. Equipped with high-friction rubber grip strips, the plate ensures your camera is held firmly in place, preventing any unwanted slippage or rotation during dynamic movements while also protecting the underside of your camera body from scratches. For an even more secure fit, a removable anti-rotation pin is included, which can be engaged to prevent any twisting, ensuring your camera remains perfectly aligned for every take. This versatility makes the 500PLONG an indispensable tool for a seamless and efficient workflow.
