The KLP-360 Quick Release Lens Plate for Select Lenses from Kirk is Arca-type compatible with a double-dovetail design. The 6061-T6 aluminum-constructed plate has a black anodized surface and the anti-twist lip is silver anodized, which makes them tough against scratches and scuffs. The reversible lip can be mounted with a 90 or 30° angle, for a snug fit against the tripod collar foot on the lens, and this feature helps to keep a tighter fit, which prevents the lens foot from pivoting while mounted to the plate. The single 1/4"-20 mounting screw is used to attach the plate to the lens's tripod foot, and the three additional 1/4"-20 mounting sockets are for optional mounting positions on a tripod. The two integrated safety stops prevent the plate from sliding out if a quick release assembly is accidentally opened, and the industry-standard QD socket allows you to carry the lens with a shoulder or sling strap.

Kirk KLP-360 Reviews
Expensive, better made plate than others
I know it seems like a lot of money for a machined plate, that other companies sell for a lot less. When mounting to a very expensive lens, the other plates fail. The movable stop tab is essential for a big lens to avoid twisting. The QD holder is an added bonus, that fits my Leophoto SP-01 strap perfectly and securely. I would say just buy it for the quality and security if you have an expensive lens
Works great on the Nikkor Z 180-600 f/5.6-6.3 S Zoom!
I purchased this Kirk KLP-360 QR Lens Plate for use with my NIkkor Z 180-600 with a BlackRapid RS-4 Sling Strap attached. It works flawlessly and is of premium construction. It's the prefect size to allow one to use the long lens on a tripod concurrently with a BR sling strap. As with other Kirk products I use (L-Brackets), Very highly recommended!
