Kondor Blue Mini Quick Release Plate for Tripod | Gimbal | Monitor | Magic Arm | Flash | Stabilizer with 1/4"-20 & 3/4" Screw | Lifetime Warranty

This is my first time using this type of quick release plat and first time using Kondor Blue line.The design itself is simple and flexible. It mounts with 1/2 or 3/8 screws. Locks tight. Zero wiggles.Machining quality and anodizing quality is outstanding. I'm really impressed with Kondor blue.Overall it's super simple, flexible, lightweight and most important to me ...zero play. Highly recommended.

I bought two of these to mount devices on motorcycles. Finding quick detachable mounting solutions for motorcycles is difficult and most of the products out there are the same captive ball mounts but none really have a way to make something quick detachable while being strong yet easy to remove. Quick and easy are different things but this mount is both, hooray.It's made with very high precision, there is no free play in the mating pieces and when they lock together it becomes on solid mount. A simply flit of the lever and device mounted can be removed. It goes back on just as easy and quick.The metal is finished very well and displays quality. I am ordering more and if you need just one you'll want 2. I highly recommend this mount, it is strong, well made and adds quality and value to the installation.

I needed a way to attach a quick disconnect to an LED lantern my wife keeps in her Jeep. Yes, it’s silly and childish, but it works perfectly for what she needs it for. Plus she totally matches her style.Anyway, I bought this to mount to the roll bar (via a universal roll bar mount). It is exactly the right size for where we needed it and it’s blue to match her Jeep. It is sturdy and does not rattle around or shake when we’re on or off road. Granted I had to think a little outside the box to get it mounted, and there is still some adjustments to the hardware to get the lantern to sit at the correct angle, but it turned out AMAZING!! The best part is that it lights up the rear storage area perfectly where it’s mounted, and we can remove it to shed light elsewhere if needed. 5 stars!!

I'm up to 4 of these now on arms, monitors, range finder. they work great. Not totally compatible with 16X9 bit will fit with wobble as in you could do it in an emergency but not for regular use. well made and reasonable price.

I’m now using these for all of my lightweight photography and filmmaking gear. They’re smaller than arca swiss, yet much more secure and easier to use than cold shoe & hot shoe mounts. I use arca swiss for my large camera and some sorta heavy LED lights, but now I’m using these Kondor Blue brackets and plates for EVERYTHING else. All my lightweight gear is interchangeable, such as: iphone mount, speedlights, small LED light mounts and anything that I often switch from small tripods to friction arms to clamps.Even though these are much more expensive than cold shoe gear, I’ll never use cold & hot shoe again, except for flash triggers on my cameras. I’ve removed all cold shoe gear and replaced with Kondor Blue brackets or plates. I did keep one hot shoe adapter though. I attached a Kondor Blue bracket to the hot shoe adapter so I can now attach gear to the hot shoe mount on top of my cameras. The good thing is I can buy the plates separately, as I need mounts for a few things, yet need plates for a variety of things.Very happy with these quick release mounts/plates and will start looking at other Kondor gear.

Great looking product that feels quality in its actuation. Tight fit when two parts are slid and locked together. Easily slides apart when unlocked.

Works well. Use it for quick release with focus controller as a 1st AC.

This thing is great. So great, in fact, that I ordered another one. I will probably order more. You can buy the combo clamp/plate, like this, or you can buy the plates alone. The plates by themselves are only $10 as I am writing this. Excellent value and the quality of the product is really nice. When locked in place it is not going anywhere. I have one of these attached to my SmallRig cage with a handle on it. I can pop the handle on and off easily at a fraction of the price of buying the SmallRig quick release handle. I am mounting another plate on the side as well so I can move the handle around depending on how I want to hold the camera. But I digress. My point is this: if you are looking for a solid quick release option for lights or monitors or mics or whatever, and you don't want to break the bank, get this. And even if you have money to burn, get this and go buy a lens. You will not be sorry.
