arca short plate for connection to z tripod mount

[Deleted member 89409]

I have arca for my long lenses to my gimbal.

I would like to mount my Nikon Z body and dslr body to a manfrotto 410 geared head which (rc4) is easy with a rc2 plate adapter going to an rc4 plate.

I am struggling to find a short arca plate to attach to the Z6 body firmly that I can mount onto an arca receptor ( which I have ) attached to the man rc4 QR plate

The problem us that the tripod socket on my z6 is to the front of the camera base and, if you attach a PU50 arca to it fouls the FTZ adapter.

An ideas please?

You could convert the 410 to arca. Also does the FTZ not have a tripod socket

OK thanks - noted and I have rc4 to arca and rc2 adapters- but the prob is finding a small enough arca plate to fit to the Z6 that doesnt foul the FTZ

I hang my head in shame - the FTZ does indeed have a tripod socket. How the h*ll did I miss that ?? What a complete wally !!!

Thanks
