The Vanguard QS-72T is a handy Arca Swiss compatible quick release shoe for cameras, smartphones and other accessories. It works with compatible Arca tripod heads. In addition, it supports smartphones up to 85mm wide.
The QS-72T has a 1/4″-20UNC camera screw and anti-slip rubber pads. Therefore, it can help keep your camera or spotting scope firmly in place. Furthermore, you can tighten the shoe by hand with the D-ring. You can also use a coin, screwdriver or Allen key.
Because the plate can stay on your camera, you can change between compatible tripod heads without moving the plate each time. As a result, the Vanguard QS-72T can help save time when you use more than one camera or scope.
Arca Swiss Compatible Quick Release Shoe
The Vanguard QS-72T fits Arca compatible tripod heads. For example, it works with selected Vanguard VEO and Alta tripod heads. It also fits other Arca compatible heads.
Once the shoe is attached to your camera, it can stay in place during transport. Therefore, you can quickly attach the camera to a compatible tripod head when needed.
Moreover, the compact design takes up little space in your camera bag. At only 100g, it adds very little weight to your setup.
Smartphone Mount for Phones Up to 85mm
The QS-72T can hold a smartphone up to 85mm wide. In addition, the smartphone clamp has a cold shoe mount on top.
This mount lets you add compatible accessories such as a light or microphone. You can also use a suitable VEO CSM adaptor. Furthermore, the side of the shoe has a 1/4″ thread hole.
As a result, you can connect a suitable support arm, such as the VEO TSA. This gives you more options when setting up your smartphone for photos or video.
Easy Camera and Scope Mounting
The QS-72T includes a 1/4″-20UNC camera screw and anti-slip rubber pads. Together, these features help provide a firm connection between your equipment and the quick release shoe.
The shoe also gives you several tightening options. You can use the D-ring by hand. Alternatively, you can use a coin, screwdriver or Allen key.
Therefore, you can fit the shoe without needing a special tool. This makes it useful for photographers, birdwatchers and outdoor users who need a quick setup.
