Acratech 2173 Reviews
Fits like a glove
I use this clamp on the Panasonic GH2, and it really is a perfect fit. I first bought a generic plate, but the GH2's tripod mount is not flush with the surface of the camera, meaning that with a flat plate the mount actually physically flexes when the camera is attached to a pro-level ball head (where you dial in a constant friction level to keep the head in place rather than loosening the head and clamping it down to make adjustments). So then I got this Acratech 2173, and it's absolutely perfect on top of my Markins Q10 head. No sign that it wants to move. My original generic plate is now attached to my Olympus OM-1, and all is right with the world. I do wish there was a fitted plate for my camera that had a loop for a hand strap, but I'll manage without it.
Perfect for GH2
Fits the GH2 perfectly. Unlike the ReallyRightStuff version there is no cork base so there are not compression issues.
