Manfrotto Long Pro Video Camera Plate

This long version of the standard plate allows for perfect balancing of camcorders with an unusual weight distribution caused by long telephoto lenses or heavy batteries. The plate features a laser-engraved scale that helps identify and mark the optimal position. To maximize the range of possible balancing positions (140 mm), the VHS positioning pin can be slid along the entire length of the plate. It comes with 2 1/4" screws and 2 3/8" screws for mounting the camera.
