The Jobu Design NX3 Surefoot Lensplate (5.5") is designed to safely mount and secure larger telephotos, such as a 400 mm F2.8, 500mm F4, 600mm F4 and other similar lenses, to your tripod. It features double safety-stops and a double-dovetail profile (for using quick release flash brackets), and it's compatible with all other North American Arca-Swiss-style lensplates. It also has a built-in anti-twist flange to prevent your lens from unscrewing during use. This plate is functionally identical to the NX4 7.0" lensplate, but is somewhat shorter to allow easier fit into hard travel cases.
Pick a plate that is 1" longer than the mounting-foot on your lens to allow enough room for a flash bracket with quick release to be added. Most medium to large lenses use 2 or more mounting screws.

Comments about Jobu Design NX3 Surefoot Lensplate (5.5"):
I needed a long plate to adjust a Nikon 300s/Tamron 18-250 lens combination to a nodal point for panoramas. This works perfectly. Well made.

Comments about Jobu Design NX3 Surefoot Lensplate (5.5"):
I like that this plate includes a 3/8 inch and two 1/4 inch screws. The larger screw is fixed in the center of the plate which reduces flexibility but proivdes a super strong attachment, which is ideal for my 500mm f4 lens. the added length allows the attachment of a 2nd clamp to the plate for something like a flash arm.
