Description of 📸 SMALLRIG Universal Quick Release Tripod Adapter Plate for Sony VCT-14-2169: Enhance Camera Mounting Efficiency!

【FOR TRIPOD SHOOTING】The tripod adapter plate with V-wedge front is for Sony VCT-14 standard, you can use with standard VCT-14 shoulder plate, such as SMALLRIG Shoulder Plate for Sony VCT-14 - 1954. 【SAFETY LOCKING SYSTEM】There is no slack and the camcorder is locked solidly to the baseplate since a spring-loaded rear pin is equipped to provide resistance when you’re pulling the camera on and off and prevent from potential sliding off. 【QUICK RELEASE INSTALL】Features a safety release lever on the side for quick release, and it’s completely hands-free to lock into place. 【EXTRA MOUNTING HOLES】Comes with plenty of 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes on the bottom for adapting different quick release plate. 【FULL-METAL CONSTRUCTION】All-metal construction is extremely solid, which reduces the potential risk of breaking. Meanwhile, the smooth coating allows sliding inside easily.

Great Price Camera Stand

The Small Stand is a great accessory for your film camera. There is nothing wrong with the quality of the material and the high processing quality. Very happy with the flexibility of these components.

Pros
  • Always Loved
Cons
  • Weight

Reliable build quality and much cheaper than other alternatives

Great for use with SmallRig VCT-14 shoulder plate. Solidly built. And cheaper than other Sony/Zacuto/Wooden Camera offerings. Works just as well as these alternatives. Honestly, you can't go wrong with SmallRig.

Pros
  • Slightly above
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Good quality VCT plate

I lost my VCT plate (which I found much later) and it was the cheapest replacement I found when buying a camera worth over 20,000 US dollars installed. SmallRig makes some very good film camera parts, but you need to do your homework and read reviews on some of them. It was definitely a great purchase. RECOMMEND.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • So far so good

Sturdy camera mount suitable for tripod and monopod accessories

Sturdy metal plate. This is a true VCT-14 plate with a spring loaded rear pin that helps keep the camera in place without wobbling. Avoid VCT-U14 inserts as they have a solid rear pin and are not usually solid metal. Despite its all-metal construction, it doesn't weigh as much as it could due to cutouts on the sides.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Can be damaged

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality, economical and practical design.

I bought this Smallrig quick release adapter to use with the Smallrig quick release shoulder plate on my Sony FS7ii and Manfrotto 504HD head. It is very well built and durable. The ability to quickly detach the fs7ii from the tripod and shoot is second to none. The price was extremely attractive compared to Zacuto.

Pros
  • Same as everything before
Cons
  • Frequency

Decent first impression. Robust construction. overpriced.

I bought this shoulder mount v-lock tripod plate from the same brand to avoid compatibility issues. 2 moving parts. That is the main reason for the 3 stars, the high price. Otherwise, the build quality seems pretty good. I hope this oven will last a lifetime. It's pretty hard. Want less weight. I also wish the release handle was colored to make it stand out better in the dark. I also want them to drill 3 small threaded triangular holes in the top of the board like other companies do so I can…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Tight bracket

I bought it for the Sony F55. The attachment of the VCT-14 plate was very reliable, there was no backlash. I bought a small rig shoulder mount with a sliding baseplate and they work well together. It increases the center of gravity and I miss going through the support bars, but it's worth it in an ENG situation because of the quick-release feature. Feels solid and well made.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Expensive

Solid insert

The Smallrig VCT insert is ruggedly built, precision engineered and affordable. It's built a lot better and fits a lot better than a lot of the regular VCT-14 plates that are floating around. I use a Lanpart VCT setup with a Panasonic EVA1 and it snaps and fits into the mount with no play which is a huge improvement over the corrugated VCT plate I had. The Smallrig version also features a clean back cutout, making it slimmer and minimizing weight without sacrificing construction or…

Pros
  • Accessory
Cons
  • Price

Decent first impression. Solid construction. overpriced.

I bought this V-Lock tripod plate to complement the same brand shoulder mount to avoid compatibility issues. Obviously SmallRig know this is a decision many people will make and that's why they overpriced this heavy metal plate with 1 or 2 moving parts. That is the main reason for the 3 stars, the high price. Otherwise, the build quality seems pretty good. I hope this oven will last a lifetime. It's pretty hard. Want less weight. I also wish the release handle was colored to make it stand out…

Pros
  • Tripod & Monopod Accessories
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
