Designed for professionals, it supports up to 5kg load, offers quick click-lock operation, and includes silicone pads to prevent scratches and deflection—perfect for seamless integration with tripods, clamps, cages, and monitors. ## Description SmallRig Drop-in HawkLock Universal mini Quick Release Plate and Clamp 3513C SmallRig Drop-in HawkLock Universal mini Quick Release Plate and Clamp 3513C comprises a quick-release plate and a baseplate. The quick-release plate supports devices with 1/4"-20 threads, such as cameras, monitors, cages, mounting plates, etc.; the quick-release plate is reserved for 2 optional dowel pins, which can be removed and installed as needed to effectively prevent the devices from deflection. Its 1/4"-20 threaded holes on the bottom allow attaching devices with 1/4"-20 screws, like tabletop tripods, ball heads, etc. It can buckle vertically and stably into the baseplate, causing no deflection. The whole kit, featuring a maximum dynamic load capacity of 5kg, is easy to lock and unlock for multiple shooting scenes. With built-in silicone pads on the top to prevent deflection and scratches. Note: 1. In order to prevent accidental contact from causing unlocking, the structure of HawkLock Quick Release is designed to prevent accidental contact, and the wrench also has a certain free movement in the locked state. The situation mentioned above is not a quality problem without affecting normal use. 2. The dowel pins are only compatible with Atomos Ninja V, Ninja V +, and Atomos Shinobi 7; The dowel pins need to be removed when using other brands of monitors. Review: Nice thing - Nice thing, quality is very good. But have few cons: screw didn’t has any stopper (you can screw it tight and then it will be unusable) Also eject is not always easy to make. Didn’t find place where it really can help in my workflow. Most time laying on shelve Review: I have found this mini locking base and plate quite useful when connecting smaller accessories, such as an external recorder, to the camera cage. It locks everything very well and does not require twisting a knob. I recommend using the Allen wrench to fasten the plate to the accessory permanently. Once this is done the next time it clicks in place wherever you put the base mount on. The advantage is that it has a very small footprint compared to traditional QR plates. Note that it does not replace the QR plate for a camera or so, as when the plate attached, It's not possible to put the camera on a flat surface or table. ## Features - 1. Highly compatible with tripods, cages, heads, etc. via 1/4"-20 holes, and features optional dowel pins. 2. Exclusive patent adapts with dual locking structure, providing high load capacity and no shaking. 3. Quickly locked and unlocked through a click without jamming. 4. Compact and portable. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09MHY8HVS | | Best Sellers Rank | #264,824 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #553 in Tripod Camera Mounts & Clamps | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (456) | | Date First Available | 15 December 2021 | | Generic Name | SmallRig Drop-in HawkLock Universal mini Quick Release Plate and Clamp | | Importer | Shetala Agencies Pvt Ltd,27, 5th Street, Bharathi Ave, Kaveri Nagar, Kottivakkam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600041 | | Included Components | 1 x Quick Release Clamp and Plate 2 x Allen Wrench | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 25 x 28 x 25 Millimeters | | Item Weight | 37 g | | Item model number | 3513B | | Manufacturer | SMALLRIG, SHENZHEN LEQI CO LTD, 4th Floor Building 12,Asian Industrail Park Bantian Shenzhen, China., SMALLRIG, SHENZHEN LEQI CO LTD, 4th Floor Building 12,Asian Industrail Park Bantian Shenzhen, China. | | Net Quantity | 1 Count | | Packer | Shetala Agencies Pvt Ltd,27, 5th Street, Bharathi Ave, Kaveri Nagar, Kottivakkam, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600041 | | Product Dimensions | 2.53 x 2.76 x 2.53 cm; 37 g | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SmallRig - **Compatible Devices:** Camera, Monitor - **Folded Size:** 30 x 27.6 x 25.3 mm - **Item Weight:** 37 Grams - **Product Dimensions:** 25D x 28W x 25H Millimeters ## Images ![SmallRig Quick Release Plate Drop-in HawkLock Mini Quick Release Camera Mount Adapter with 1/4" Screw, for Camera Clamp, Super Clamp, Ball Head, Tripod, Magic Arm, Stabilizer, Field Monitor - 3513C - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71190YBjiEL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Would this work underwater?
