Manfrotto MVA515W Variable Plate

The Manfrotto SYMPLA Variable Plate mounts onto a SYMPLA rig and secures your camera with a lockable quick release plate, allowing precise adjustment along three axes-longitudinal, lateral, and vertical-for optimal positioning.

Longitudinally, the plate slides up and down SYMPLA rods. Laterally, you would adjust a dial to offset the camera from the plate’s center. And vertically, again by dial, you would align the plate higher and lower. In all three instances, a separate ratchet lever tightens to lock position. The flexibility of three independent axes allows the camera to be set up for different types of shots and allows the viewfinder to be positioned right in front of your eye.

Two 3/8″ threads on the underside allow mounting onto a monopod or tripod or onto a video head via a second, optional quick release plate. Easy-Link fittings on the sides of the plate support Magic Arms, light modifiers, lighting units and external monitors.

The Plate is made of durable steel components and is precision-cast in aluminium. It has no hard-to-access screws and requires no tools for fitting or adjustment.
