Claw Arca Quick Release Plate Set (Gen 2) — Switch Cameras Instantly. Hold 110 lb. Weighs 2 Ounces.
The second-generation Claw Arca Quick Release Plate Set solves Gen 1's biggest limitation by replacing the proprietary mount with a universal Arca-Swiss dovetail base — while keeping the same legendary 110 lb load capacity, slide-lock safety, and one-second swap speed that made the original a favorite among photographers and videographers. Whether you're switching your camera between a tripod, gimbal, slider, or stabilizer, this plate set eliminates the repetitive screwing and unscrewing that slows you down. Mount once, swap forever.
Arca-Swiss Universal — No More Proprietary Lock-In
The Gen 2 receiver base features a standard Arca-Swiss dovetail profile, making it directly compatible with any Arca-type tripod head, ball head, gimbal, L-bracket, or slider on the market. If your support gear speaks Arca, this plate set speaks it too. And with full backward compatibility, all Gen 1 Claw plates still click right in — no need to replace your existing kit.
Small Plate. Massive 110 lb Hold.
At just 59 grams (2.08 oz), the camera plate is lighter than a car key fob. But thanks to full CNC-machined aluminum alloy construction and a precision locking mechanism, it supports up to 50 kilograms (110 lb) of vertical load. Full-frame DSLR with a 70-200mm f/2.8? Cinema rig with a matte box and follow focus? The Claw plate doesn't flinch. The rubberized anti-slip base pad maximizes surface grip and protects your camera's finish from scratches and rotation.
Slide to Lock. Press to Release. No Accidents.
Unlike spring-loaded quick release plates that can snag or accidentally discharge, the Claw uses a deliberate dual-action system: slide the lock switch to secure your camera, press the release button to disengage. This two-step design means you'll never accidentally drop your camera by bumping a single button. The Gen 2 version features a refined slide mechanism with smoother action and a more tactile click when fully engaged.
7 Threaded Mounts on the Base — Your Rig's New Hub
The receiver base isn't just a clamp — it's an expansion platform. Seven 1/4"-20 threaded sockets let you bolt it securely to stabilizers (dual-screw mounting eliminates twist), attach directly to cages and rigs, or daisy-chain accessories. The camera plate's standard 1/4"-20 screw fits virtually every camera on the market: Canon, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic, Fujifilm, and more.
