Wimberley AP-554 Lens Foot (Nikon 500 f/4 AF-S I & II and VR)

Wimberley AP-554 Lens Foot (Nikon 500 f/4 AF-S I & II and VR)

The Wimberley AP-554 is a lens mount plate with Arca-Swiss compatibility. This replacement foot allows you to attach Nikon 500mm telephoto lenses 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-554 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.

• Perfect balance: Lowers the center of gravity, making it easier to control and stabilize a heavy lens on the swing head.
• Direct Arca-Swiss Compatibility: Machined to fit directly into Arca-style quick release mounts without spacers.
• Versatile mounting threads: Includes female threads that allow the plate to be attached to tripods or monopods that do not have an Arca base.
• Safe use: Equipped with safety stops that prevent the lens from accidentally slipping off the mount.
• Flash Bracket Compatible: Designed to work seamlessly with Wimberley flash bracket systems.

Compatibility:

• Nikon 500mm f/4 AF-S series I & II
• Nikon 500mm f/4 AF-S VR
• Nikon 500mm f/4 AF-S VR II
