Arnie QD for Sony Alpha Cameras
The 3 Legged Thing Ernie QD is an L-bracket exclusively for the Sony α series that is compatible with the QD system. The main body is made of durable magnesium alloy and is molded as a single piece to resist distortion.
It is Arca-Swiss compatible and can be smoothly mounted on a tripod either horizontally or vertically, with rubber pads to prevent the camera from shifting. The bracket is designed to allow access to the side ports, memory card slot, and battery slot without interfering with the movement of the LCD monitor.
There are two 3/8 inch screw holes with 1/4 inch conversion adapters on the bottom of the base, allowing you to attach accessories such as arms.
It also has a drop prevention screw, a strap hole, and a QD socket that supports the QD system. It comes with an adapter plate that can be attached to the Peak Design “Capture V3”, so you can attach and detach the bracket to the Capture V3 without removing it. Available in two colors: copper and dark.
