Sunwayfoto PN-D800 Arca-Swiss Compatible Base Plate for Nikon D800/D800E - CNC Machined Aluminum, Anti-Twist, Black

Precision CNC-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, the Sunwayfoto PN-D800 base plate delivers rock-solid Arca-Swiss compatibility for your Nikon D800 or D800E. Its custom-fit design wraps the camera base with anti-twist flanges, ensuring the plate stays perfectly aligned even under heavy lens loads.

Overview

The PN-D800 is a dedicated base plate engineered specifically for the Nikon D800 and D800E DSLR bodies. Unlike generic plates, it features a raised lip that mates with the camera's body contours, preventing any rotational movement. The plate is hard anodized in a durable black finish, providing scratch resistance and a professional look. A 1/4"-20 UNC mounting screw secures the plate to the camera tripod socket, and two safety stop screws prevent accidental slide-out when loosening the clamp. An integrated strap loop hole allows direct attachment of a camera strap without removing the plate.
