Use the E-Image Quick-Release Adapter to add an E-Image tripod plate to any other brand camera support or to other grip equipment. Having all of your equipment use the same baseplate system allows you to quickly move your camera between accessories efficiently without having to switch baseplates. To balance your camera on tripods or other accessories, the quick-release plate can be moved forward or backward before you lock it down in the adapter. In addition to the lock-down lever, a safety release ensures that the camera won't fall off the plate if it's not secured.
