FREEFLY MOVI Pro Adjustable Camera Plate

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro Adjustable Camera Plate is a precision-engineered accessory designed to provide enhanced flexibility, faster balancing, and expanded mounting options for cameras on Freefly MōVI Pro and MōVI XL gimbal stabilizers. This adjustable plate allows for fine-tuning of the camera’s position on the gimbal, which is crucial for achieving perfect balance and optimizing various camera setups.Achieving precise balance on a gimbal is fundamental for optimal performance, smooth footage, and reduced motor strain. While the MōVI Pro and XL offer extensive adjustability, some camera setups benefit significantly from the ability to make micro-adjustments directly on the camera plate. This is where the Adjustable Camera Plate excels.

Key features and benefits of the FREEFLY MōVI Pro Adjustable Camera Plate include:

• Fine-Tune Balancing: Allows for subtle fore-aft (and sometimes side-to-side) adjustments of the camera relative to the gimbal’s pan axis. This enables extremely precise balancing, especially with complex camera builds or when using heavy lenses, leading to smoother pans and more stable footage.
• Rapid Adjustments: Designed for quick, tool-less (or minimal-tool) adjustments, significantly speeding up the balancing process on set, which is crucial when time is limited.
• Enhanced Mounting Options: Features multiple standard mounting points (e.g., numerous 1/4″-20 threaded holes and a 3/8″ slot). These additional holes can be used to mount lightweight accessories directly to the plate, such as wireless video transmitters, focus motors, or cable clamps, further streamlining the rig.
• Durable and Lightweight Construction: Crafted from high-grade, hard-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum. It weighs approximately 52 grams (1.83 oz), ensuring robustness and longevity for professional use while adding minimal weight to the overall gimbal payload.
• Secure Camera Attachment: Provides a rock-solid platform for mounting the camera, typically using industry-standard camera screws (a variety of 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 screws are usually included). The design minimizes any flex or play, ensuring the camera remains securely locked in place during dynamic gimbal movements.
• Compatibility: Specifically designed for seamless integration with the camera carriages of the Freefly MōVI Pro and MōVI XL gimbal stabilizers.

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro Adjustable Camera Plate is an indispensable MōVI accessory for professional cinematographers and riggers who demand the utmost precision and efficiency in their gimbal setups. It’s a critical gimbal balancing tool that contributes significantly to faster setup times, more stable footage, and greater versatility in camera configurations on the Freefly MōVI system.
