The M-Plate Pro Tripod Plate
| If you use a tripod and a camera strap -- this is what you've been missing.
Transition to/from your tripod quickly and easily with the M-Plate Pro Tripod Plate. If you’re using a sling strap or other accessory that attaches to the tripod mount, you no longer have to waste time removing the strap in order to mount your camera to a tripod.
TThe M-Plate is a universal camera tripod plate system with the world's first integrated tripod mount to work with most Manfrotto RC2 and Arca-Swiss connections, and modular attachment points for accessories.
If you're like me, I like to walk around with a camera strap. I've always liked mounting a camera strap to the tripod socket on my camera, but found it a real nuisance at those times when I wanted to use a tripod. I had to remove the camera strap and attach a tripod mounting plate in its place. But with the M-Plate Pro, I can have one plate attached to the bottom of my camera that allows me to attach my strap to the plate WITHOUT losing the ability to mount my camera on a tripod. Plus, with the C-Loop (sold separately), I can very easily remove my strap whenever I want. It's the best of both worlds!
The M-Plate Pro has the following features:
- Universal: You can quickly attach it to any tripod while using your camera strap system. It's compatible with ALL camera straps using the C-Loop, as well as the BlackRapid, Sun Sniper, Spider Holster, Cotton Carrier and others that attach to the tripod socket.
- Built-in Manfrotto RC2 + Arca-Swiss Quick Release: It comes ready to mount to either a standard Arca-Swiss or Manfroto RC2 quick-release plate. And, extra mounting holes make it compatible with virtually any tripod plate.
- Fast Access: When used with the C-Loop (sold separately) the camera hangs perfectly balanced on your side for instant engagement.
- Comfortable: Ergonomic design relocates the tripod socket making it easier to use.
- Durable: Made from aerospace grade aluminum and hard anodized for a superior black finish.
- Accessories: The built-in M-Link Port™ will connect with future photo and video attachments, including flash brackets and video rigs that are currently in development.

The M-Plate works in concert with the C-Loop (sold separately). You attach your camera strap to the C-Loop and then you can attach the C-Loop (with your strap attached) to the arm on the M-Plate. You can easily attach or remove your strap this way and can always attach the M-Plate to your tripod (with or without the strap attached).
