Niceyrig 220 Overview

This two-piece Niceyrig Quick Release Plate Kit can be attached to various camera supports, such as select shoulder rigs, shoulder pads, and cheese plates. It can also be used to build up a rig with other components. The bottom plate (baseplate) attaches to your rig with two included 1/4"-20 screws, and the top plate attaches to your camera. The camera can then be mounted on the baseplate and removed by quick release. The camera plate comes with both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera mounting screws, and it can be secured not just to cameras but also to camera cages and other gear.

The camera plate features the Manfrotto 501PL standard, which is compatible with many common tripods and other camera supports, so you can easily move your camera between your rig and these camera supports. The camera plate is tightened into place on the baseplate via a spring-loaded lever on the side of the baseplate, and a safety lock on the baseplate ensures the camera plate won't come off accidentally, even when the spring-loaded lever is loosened. The safety lock is released at the push of a release button.

Solid plate, many uses, good to have around just in case

This plate has multiple uses, anywhere from placing a camera in an odd/hard to reach location, using a gimbal, a c-stand, a pipe/handlebar, shoulder rig, wall, table, ceiling, etc. Basically if you have an unusual need that isn't met by a standard tripod, you can use this, just use your imagination.

BEST IN MARKET! I'm replacing my 8 mf plates with these!

These plates and mounts are everything I ever dreamed of! Unlike their overpriced competitors, they actually work, they don't get stuck, they're actually quick to switch, and they're half the price! The competitor has been giving me headaches for 8 years. Gone are the days where my camera is stuck to the tripod for ten minutes because I can't access the locking knob! Gone are the days I had to dismantle a quickplate just because it only goes one way and doesn't fit under my lens! I dislike working with cages and switch cameras from one stabilizer to another very often. A proper quickplate and mount design is indispensable! This simple but extremely effective design should have been out a decade ago! The locking knob on this mount is easily accessible if you have a camera connected. You can even turn it completely underneath the cam body! The plate locks and removes in both directions! The plate is small, almost half the length of a standard mf, so it's not for every camera. Everything except the knob cover is metal and well made! Everything works with my other brands' quickplates and mounts too! Not that I'm keeping any of them. I love it. I'm finally happy with my quickplate system. I'll never give another dime to MF! I'm replacing every one of my MF mounts and plates with one of these!

Can the camera be top-loaded with this plate?
Asked by: Mattie
Normally, a camera is mounted on a plate like the one in the Niceyrig Manfrotto 501PL Quick Release Plate Kit by attaching the plate to the bottom of the camera. If you have a cage for the camera, you could invert it and place the camera onto this plate upside down.

Will this accept a DJI RS3 pro plate?
Asked by: derek
Yes, the Niceyrig Manfrotto 501PL Quick Release Plate Kit's quick release mount uses the same Manfrotto 501PL system as the DJI RS 3 Pro Gimbal Stabilizer does, so it can receive the DJI RS 3 Pro Gimbal Stabilizer's (BH #DJRS3P) Manfrotto 501PL camera mounting plate.

Hi, can this be used for a vertical mounting of a 5kg camera? if not, or unsure, what kind of system would be recommendable?
Asked by: Hokke
The base plate clamps overlap enough on the quick-release plate within the Niceyrig Manfrotto 501PL Quick Release Plate Kit that it should support a 5kg product.
