A plate that attaches to the lens tripod collar with Arca-Swiss compatibility.

The Wimberley AP-500 is a lens mount plate with Arca-Swiss compatibility. This replacement foot allows you to mount the Nikon 500mm f/5.6 PF VR lens directly to any Arca-compatible tripod head, eliminating the need to screw a separate quick release plate onto the original foot.
The precision-machined AP-500 has a lower profile than the original foot that comes with the lens. The lower profile lowers the lens' center of gravity, making it much easier to achieve perfect balance when using gimbals such as the Wimberley Head. Proper balance is essential for optimal performance, especially when using Sidekick or Sidemount heads.
