Module 8 M-8 Perpendicular Plate
for use with Wimberley Modular Flash Bracket System
The Modular 8 M-8 Perpendicular Plate from Wimberley is designed for use with the Wimberley Shape-Shifter Modular Flash Bracket System. A system of flash bracket components, they easily connect without tools and are integrated with the Arca-Swiss type quick release system. This Perpendicular Plate gives you a dovetail plate that is perpendicular to the original direction of your camera body plate.
Since the dovetail on most camera body plates is oriented perpendicular to the axis of the lens, adding the perpendicular plate gives you a dovetail plate that is parallel to the axis of the lens. This is useful for attaching telephoto and macro brackets to your camera body. The Perpendicular Plate can also be used to make small forward and backward adjustments for macro photography.
