Solid and reliable especially on the MSM nomad star tracker. Very happy with this purchase
By Richard O.
Easy to buy, perfect fit. I needed the smaller bolt for a Hasselblad 553ELX vs the larger one the 500 uses.

Excepional product quality! Amazing customer support. Acratech is a great find for my photography habit. They are photographers who know what photographers need!!

Quick shipping since they're near by. The part was exactly what I needed. Wish it was cheaper but I understand. I love your products! (own the panoramic and ultimate ball head)

Great product. Works perfectly on my Leica M6.!! This camera plate along with the universal L bracket make portrait orientation easy. Highly recommended.

Customer service was excellent. What a treat! They really helped me figure out how the Acratech Leveling Base would work with the ultimate ball head on my Ascend 14 Tripod. It all worked out great! Love their products!

I use both the Quick Release Clamps and the Locking Lever Clamps. The Quick Release Clamp features a large rubberized knob extending from the clamp body, making it much easier and faster to tighten or release. In terms of speed, it can easily rival a lever clamp. The Locking Lever Clamp, on the other hand, is field-adjustable by hand to accommodate different plate sizes and includes a lock to prevent accidental release. Both designs provide a fast, secure attachment for equipment, eliminating concerns about under-tightening or struggling to achieve a solid hold. I have both types mounted to 3/8”-16 Arca-Style Plates (#2129) for use on heads where the clamps cannot be replaced or where proprietary plates are required.

I purchased a quick release plate for my Pentax 67 that I wasn’t able to find elsewhere and so far I’m happy with the product. Perhaps a bit expensive but you get what you pay for.
