This kit provides a compact, lightweight, and efficient all-in-one power solution for mirrorless camera setups. It combines a V-mount battery plate, an Arca-Swiss quick release plate, and an adjustable LCD screen protector to simplify mounting, power distribution, and screen protection.
The V-mount battery plate uses an Arca-Swiss quick release mechanism for fast, tool-free attachment. It allows quick locking and adjustment so you can install or remove the battery plate rapidly during shoots.
Moreover, the Arca-Swiss baseplate includes an adjustable locking lever. This ensures compatibility with most Arca-Swiss quick release plates on the market and enables direct slide-in attachment of cages and L-shaped handles that have built-in Arca-Swiss plates.
The baseplate is retractable to fit mirrorless cameras of varying sizes. As a result, you can adapt the plate position to achieve the best balance and clearance for different camera bodies and flip-screen designs.
Strategically positioned power outputs on the V-mount plate include D-Tap and USB-C. These outputs let you power multiple devices at the same time without blocking camera operation or interfering with a top handle.
The USB-C port supports up to 65W PD input, which allows the plate to function as a V-mount battery charger when supplied with compatible power sources.
The V-mount battery plate rotates 180° with three useful positions: 0° for compact storage, 90° for low-profile camera mounting, and 180° for straightforward access to the camera’s LCD screen. This gives you flexibility in how the battery plate sits relative to your camera and screen.
It also features a stainless steel gear-lock mechanism for a secure, wobble-free hold. A damping system prevents the battery from dropping during rotation, protecting your equipment while you reposition the plate.
The battery release button includes a trigger safety lever with customizable engagement. You can set the lever to prevent accidental disengagement of the battery, ensuring safer operation during fast-paced shooting.
The modular LCD screen protector adjusts in height and width without tools. It fits most flip-screen mirrorless cameras and protects the screen from impacts while still allowing access and adjustment when needed.
The kit includes cable clips and an elastic Velcro strap to help organize cables and reduce the risk of snags during shoots. The V-mount plate also provides multiple cable clip mounting holes so you can route cables to suit your setup.
Additionally, the plate has multiple 1/4"-20 threaded and locating holes for attaching accessories such as magic arms, wireless transmitters, and other professional components.
