At this time, the current AP-553 may not provide enough length for proper balance when using the Nikon 500VR or 200-400VR mated with a light weight camera body. (Click for more details) A P-40 lens plate is recommended in these cases:

1. when mounting the lens on the Wimberley Head;
2. when mounting the lens on the Sidekick – combine with the recommended Sidekick shifter,
3. if you already have the AP-553 and have difficulty balancing the camera/lens combo – mount the P-40 to the bottom of the AP-553.

About Replacement Feet

These custom low-profile replacement feet replace the factory foot on the rotation collar of your lens and also serve as the Arca-Swiss style quick-release plate for your lens. No additional quick-release plate is needed. It makes your lens handle better on a conventional tripod head, such as a ball head, and also makes it easier to pack.

Example Shown: Nikon 400 f/2.8
