Q=Base
Photographers and video filmers will be enthusiastic about NOVOFLEX‘s new Q=BASE quick-release connection system. There is no faster or safer way of mounting and dismounting cameras from a tripod, regardless of whether the system is analog or digital.

The Q=BASE system was designed with special emphasis on easy handling and compact dimensions. Q=BASE automatically locates the mounting plate, which is then clamped in position of automatic location and manual clamping gives you optimal control while you mount your valuable camera. There‘s also a safety pin as an extra safeguard to prevent the NOVOFLEX mounting plate from slipping out inadvertently.
 
The Q=BASE system consists of a tripod plate (quick-release connection system), nine different mounting plates (Q=PLATE) and an angle bracket. The Q=BASE also takes most profile mounting plates from third-party manufacturers (ARCA, Graf, etc.), although without safety pin function. This means mounting plates are available for almost all camera types and applications.

Easy handling, outstanding mechanical quality and technical precision, plus the elegant, advanced design assure this patented tool a top spot among quick-release connection system systems.

NOVOFLEX Q=PLATE
For the Q=BASE system NOVOFLEX offers nine specially designed mounting plates (Q=PLATE) in different lengths and versions: with one or more studs (1/4“ and 3/8“), with anti-twist pin, for middle format cameras, plus special plates for video cameras/camcorder with video pin. All Q=PLATES use the special safety pin that prevents the plate from accidentally slipping out. Thanks to this safety pin, the long mounting plates can be used securely and with no problems as a macro rack with stop.

All mounting plates are machined to highest precision and extremely rugged.

Angle bracket for Q=BASE, Q=MOUNT and CASTEL-Q

The new angle bracket for the Q=BASE system (Q=BASE, Q=MOUNT and CASTEL-Q) makes it easy to change the camera format from landscape to portrait in a matter of seconds. The long travel for camera adjustment provided by the slotted bar means that the camera position can be varied as necessary, also for use in stereo photography. Cameras with a motor drive and or powerpack handles can also be swivelled in the optical axis.

The angle bracket has an extra 1/ 4“ thread for direct tripod connection.
