Gitzo GS5370C / GS5370MC Quick Release Plate, C Profile

The C profile is the plate shape used across most of the Gitzo head range. It bolts to the base of the camera and stays there, so mounting becomes a drop and a lever rather than winding a screw in by hand every time the body comes off the sticks.

The square GS5370C is the standard fit at 47 by 47 mm, and the longer GS5370MC gives a lens foot or a larger body more bearing surface against rotation. Both ship with 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch screws, so the same plate covers a mirrorless body and a telephoto collar without a trip to the hardware drawer.
