SmallRig Mounting Cheese Easy Plate

The SmallRig Mounting Cheese Easy Plate is a camera accessory designed for photographers and videographers who need a versatile mounting platform. It features both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes arranged in standard 9mm center-to-center spacing. This design ensures broad compatibility with railblocks, dovetails, and short rods. The plate provides a secure and stable base for supporting camera rigs and accessories.

Quick switching plate for DSLR cages

When attached to the bottom of a DSLR cage, the plate functions as a switching plate for rapid equipment changes. This capability replaces the need to manually unscrew and reposition gear between setups. The jump is worth it for professionals and enthusiasts who frequently transition between tripod, handheld, and shoulder rig configurations. It streamlines workflow by allowing fast, tool-free reconfiguration of the camera system.

Dual thread mounting capacity and headroom

The plate comfortably handles the weight of standard camera gear thanks to its robust construction and dual thread pattern. The sixteen threaded holes provide ample mounting points for accessories and support components. It runs out when a setup requires proprietary mounting interfaces or hole spacings that differ from the 9mm standard. Builders needing larger surface areas or non-standard thread patterns will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

What hole spacing does the Mounting Cheese Easy Plate use for railblocks and dovetails?

The plate has 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes spaced 9 mm centre-to-centre, matching SmallRig railblocks, dovetails and short rods.

How do you attach the plate to a DSLR cage so it works as a switching plate?

Screw the plate to the cage bottom using the 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 threads; the standard 9 mm spacing lets you slide the cage onto a dovetail or railblock for quick changes.

Which threads on the plate may need re-tapping or replacement after heavy use?

The 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes can wear over time; if they strip, the plate itself would need replacing as the threads are not serviceable.
