Description
Dedicated to the Leica M (Typ 240) and M (Typ 246), this Base Plate from Really Right Stuff is an Arca-type compatible plate that facilitates easier, more stable mounting of your camera atop a tripod. This plate also features a modular design that allows it to accept an optional L-component, which combine to form a dedicated L-plate. This specialized plate is designed to replace the original Leica base plate and features a foam gasket for dust and moisture sealing. This plate has a magnet that ensures full camera functionality when it is properly attached and a tool-free wingnut screw is available for easy removal and replacement. A mounting point for an optional hand grip is available. Additionally, the CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction is finished with a Type II black anodizing, a 1/4"-20 threaded mounting socket is featured on the base, and a laser-engraved center mark is placed on the rear of the plate for easy alignment.
