VEO QS-360 ARCA-Compatible Pan Quick-Release Plate Camera Mount

The solid aluminum, CNC-machined VEO QS-360S is an Arca-compatible plate that rotates 360° and can be attached to any Arca-compatible tripod head to make it dual axis – or any head using a suitable quick release plate. It can also fit directly onto any tripod or monopod to allow you to attach any accessory with a 1/4" or 3/8" thread. In its mechanics, the VEO QS-360S consists of three parts. On top is an Arca-compatible QS-62 v3 quick-release plate, which incorporates two removable safety pins, and a choice of D-ring, hex key, or screwdriver/coin to attach the 1/4" thread to the base of your camera (or accessory). In the middle is the pan plate, which delivers the pan motion, based on the top axis mechanism used in the VEO BH Dual-Axis Heads. This includes a textured aluminum locking knob that works the quick-release clamp and a panorama lock knob opposite. Both are designed to be easy to grip in cold, wet weather, or in gloves. If the panorama locking knob gets too close to the base of the camera, then simply pull it out and rotate it to a more comfortable position. On the base there is an Arca-compatible QS-76 quick-release plate. This also includes choice of D-ring, hex key, or screwdriver/coin to attach the 1/4" thread to the base (or any other accessory). It also includes a spring pin mechanism, which ensures that the VEO QS-360S won't slip when in use, especially in portrait mode. No longer do you have to compromise with an Arca-compatible 3-way pan-head, choosing whether you need it set up for a long lens or an L-bracket. Simply attach the VEO QS-360S, and you can use either with ease. Attaching it to the top of an Arca-compatible traditional ball head allows you to set up your tripod on any terrain without fiddling with your tripod legs to find a level. Simply extend the legs and set the level with your ball head in seconds; then, use the VEO QS-360 to deliver perfectly level panoramas or reframe your composition without losing your level. As more specialist Arca-compatible quick-release plates come out, the VEO QS-360S can also allow you to upgrade your favorite head to Arca standards by simply swapping the quick-release plate on the base with the quick-release plate on your tripod. Please note, we would only recommend this for quick-release plates with a spring pin to ensure that the VEO QS-360S stays properly aligned in use, especially when used in portrait mode. The VEO QS-360S also comes with a 3/8" thread and a 1/4" adapter that allows you to fit it directly onto any tripod or monopod. For example, this can be used to attach any camera, or any accessory with a 1/4" thread in the base. It can even be attached to non-photography products such as laser levels and speakers to offer an extra degree of control. This is only a handful of examples. Truly, the VEO QS-360S is an accessory that can help unleash your creativity.
