Front-to-back 1/4-20 screw channels accommodate spacing up to 30mm apart center-to-center. Side-to-side 1/4-20 screw channels accommodate spacing up to 60mm apart center-to-center.
Example configurations:

- Attach to a Ronin 2 gimbal plate and install a MID49 ARCA Dovetail
The Universal ARCA Clamp is now available to purchase for $125 USD.
Top 15mm Rod Bracket
The Top 15mm Rod Bracket attaches to the front of the Top Plates for the Sony Burano, Canon C400, Blackmagic PYXIS / URSA Cine LF. It holds to 15mm LW rods for adding focus motors, viewfinder mounts, and other accessories over the lens area.

Rods pass over the Top Plate and around the ARCA Top Handle and Rainbow Handle while still allowing access for carrying. This looks like a good option for leaving rod accessories installed when switching to gimbal mode using adapters like Gimbal Top ARCA Adapter (DJI Ronin 2) or (Freefly Mōvi Pro) or the ARCA Top Plate.
Compatible Top Plates:
- Top Plate (Canon C400)
- Top Plate (Sony Burano)
- Top Plate (Blackmagic PYXIS)
- Top Plate (Blackmagic URSA Cine LF)
The Top 15mm Rod Bracket is now available to purchase for $125 USD.
