Wimberley P20 Arca-Type Quick Release Plate for Telephoto Lenses - 3.9" (98mm)
The Wimberley P20 quick release plate for lenses is made of silky-smooth andonized aluminum, with anti-twist flanges to trace the edges of the lens' tripod collar. It fits all the Arca-type quick release adapters, which are made by many different companies such as Acratech, Arca-Swiss, Foba, Graf/Studioball, Gitzo, Novoflex, NPC and (of course) Wimberley.
- Dual Safety Stops
- The safety stops at the front & back of the Wimberley P20 plate prohibit your lens from accidentally slipping out of the quick release adapter(easily removed with supplied hex wrench if desired).
- Double-Dovetail Cross-Section
- The Wimberley double-dovetail design allows attachment of their Shape Shifter flash bracket system to the upper or lower surface of the P20 plate.
- Works with All Common Flash Brackets
- Drilled holes accept flash arms from Kirk & Really Right Stuff
- Combine with two Module 1 Quick Release Arms(B&H item code "WIM1") for a brilliant support base for using your long lens atop a beanbag

Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
Quality that everyone expects from Wimberley.
Fits perfectly on my 70-200 2.8IS and Kirk BH-3. The rear of the lens plate (closest to the camera) has a lip that sticks out that allows you to line up the lens plate perfectly to the lens collar.
I also installed the anti-slip screws (front and back) so the lens will not slide off if my clamp is not tightened.

I needed a couple of quick release plates and had used Wimberley in the past. Good construction, albeit a bit pricey. Gets the job done though.

Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
This plate mounts to my 70-200 f/2.8 Nikon lens so that the lens will mount to the Wimberley gimbal. It seems a little expensive for what it does, but it does what it's designed to do perfectly.

Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
I bought this plate along with my Kirk BH-1 Ballhead. This plate mounted perfectly onto the collar of my 70-200L f/2.8 IS lens. I love the integration of the safety stop screws and the anti-twist nubs. Very nice plate. I feel much happier knowing that my gear is securely mounted.

Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
I bought several plates for my Telephoto lenses and it's a real joy to swap them using a Wimberley WH200 quick release base. The plates are very strong, lightweight and secure the gear very well. They are a bit pricey, but the cost is minimal compared to many professional lenses and cameras. I highly recommend them.
Pros
- Durable
- Easy To Use
- Lightweight
- Reliable
Cons
Best Uses
- Select long telelenses
Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
This is a mandatory accessory for using some clamps, as such it´s not much of an option. The ones provided by Wimberley are well constructed, come with a few additional safety screws should you want to add to it, and are sufficiently oversized to allow for sliding in finding the balance for your lens.
It even looks good!
Maybe a bit expensive for a mandatory accessory.
Pros
- Compact
- Durable
- Easy to Use
- Lightweight
Cons

Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
Used with Wimberly gimbal head and light telephoto lens. Attaches tightly to lens and to gimbal mount. Safety screws prevent it from accidentally slipping out of the mount.
Pros
- I love the convenience
- It is a secure option
- It works well with my RRS
Cons
- none
Best Uses
- 70-200mm F28 L IS
Comments about Wimberley P20 Quick Release Plate:
I mounted the P-20 Quick Release Plate on my 70-200mm F2.8 Canon zoom. I already had the larger plate for my 500mm and love the convenience of having the plates installed on all my lenses. I use the stop screws on my plate for added protection. The stops keep the lens from sliding out of the ballhead and falling to the ground.
