10 individual removable plates

Fitting to the Q=BASE, NOVOFLEX is introducing a set of 10 individual removable plates. Q=PLATES are offered in different lengths, with one or more anti-twist screws and special plates for video cameras and medium format cameras. These Q=PLATES use the special safety pin of the Q=BASE, to prevent the plates from slipping out of the base. So they have a built-in focusing rail function with the longer plates!  Great importance was put on an excellent handling and a compact construction.  Not all plates sown in picture at right are available.

Automatic, practical, functional – the new NOVOFLEX Q-BASE

With the Q=BASE NOVOFLEX presents a completely new type of a quick release – not squared but pleasantly round - for the popular ARCA-Type plates.

Novoflex, for the first time, features automatic locking of the Arca plates on to the Q-Base. Precise final positioning of the plate takes place manually with a knurled base ring.

This excellent combination of automatic locking function and manual adjustment gives the user an optimal check of the clamping function and allows, for the first time, one hand operation of an Arca compatible system!.

Describes the new, manual quick release from the MiniConnect family. By eliminating the automatic locking function an extremely practical, small and inexpensive quick release for Novoflex MiniConnect coupling pieces has been developed. The new NOVOFLEX MiniConnect MR quick release fits all small ball & socket heads, as well as on other

Bracket and mounting accessories. The MiniConnect MR is particularly suited for small and mid size equipment.  Size: Ø 2,09 in, h= 0,79 in, weight: 3,53 oz,  one coupling piece with ¼ " thread is included
