(Peak Design PL-D-2 Dual Plate (Black)

Peak Design PL-D-2 Dual Plate (Black) SKU: PL-D-2

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Does Not Work with 234RC Head I bought this plate and a Manfrotto 234RC monopod head because Peak's compatibility sheet says that the dual plate works on this head. It doesn't. The plate only goes on the head with the camera lens facing to the side of the tripod head, which renders it totally useless because the head pivots forward. Peak's claim that the dual plate is compatible with this head is utter nonsense. Now, I have to return the head and the dual plate and purchase a standard plate and an Arca-Swiss style head. Peak Designs' carelessness has just wasted a lot of my time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Peak Design Dual Plate I have this product on all my cameras! I have two tripods and frequently use other studio tripods so having a dual plate that is compatible with Arca Swiss and Manfrotto is crucial! Heartily recommended!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile I bought this as I could not figure out what the mount was on my FILs tripod, it only fits 1 way but at least I can stop researching.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product. Feels solid and secure. Fits in all my tripods which is great. Just wish the anchors wouldnt occassionally make it difficult to align the plate on the tripod since its on the side corners. But thats a pretty minor gripe.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than my Manfrotto plate Amazingly, this is much easier to use on my Manfrotto tripod than the original Manfrotto plate, which was stiff. This must be fractionally smaller (but still totally solid) which makes using it a breeze.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Get it This plate is awesome and is like a leatherman of camera plates, I keep one in my grip bag when assisting because chances are that if someone forgets a camera plate, this one will fit the tripod. Very well build although the paint does wear off around points of contact after a few months, although to be fair I never made any effort to keep it scuff-free or clean of scratches.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic I use this to connect my D850 with my PD tripod and smaller tripod with a Manfrotto 494 ball head. Slight wiggle with 494 but still secure

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Dual Plate - The Best! I own several of these Dual Plates. Absolutely the best solution for those who like the option to run both Arca Swiss and Manfrotto style setups. No need for the annoying issue of changing out plates just to change mount systems. Just jump back and forth between either with this piece of equipment. Example: The Dual Plate works perfect when I’m running my Vamguard Arca Swiss window mount and decide to jump out of the truck and set up my Manfrotto pan head set up on a tripod. The Dual Plate allows you to run your favorite option of mount without the added time of having to change out the plate. Great quality and great service! Thanks Peak Design!
