Novoflex QPL 450 Double-Sided Arca-Style Rail - 45cm Long

The double-sided design of the Novoflex QPL 450 allows for greater versatility in your photography setup. With Arca-Swiss-style dovetails on both sides, you can easily attach it to a double-clamp system, enabling you to mount two cameras simultaneously. This is particularly beneficial for 3D imaging, as you can adjust the interaxial distance between the cameras' optical centres for optimal results.

The inclusion of both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 tripod mounting holes provides flexibility in how you attach the rail to your tripod or head. This allows you to use a wider variety of tripods and heads without worrying about compatibility issues, ensuring a secure and stable setup for your camera equipment.

While the Novoflex QPL 450 is designed to work seamlessly with Novoflex's MultiMediaRig systems, its Arca-style profile and standard mounting holes make it compatible with various other camera rigs and equipment that support the Arca-Swiss system. This means you can incorporate it into your existing setup without needing to replace any other components.

The Novoflex QPL 450 is particularly well-suited for 3D photography and videography, allowing for precise camera positioning and adjustment. Additionally, it can be beneficial for panoramic photography, time-lapse sequences, and any scenario where dual camera setups are advantageous. Its sturdy design ensures that it can handle the demands of professional photography.

The 45cm length of the Novoflex QPL 450 provides a balanced platform for dual camera setups, allowing for adequate spacing between cameras while still being compact enough for portability. This length is optimal for a variety of shooting scenarios, including studio work and outdoor shoots, where space and weight can be limiting factors.

To adjust the interaxial distance between the cameras mounted on the Novoflex QPL 450, simply loosen the 1/4"-20 screws that hold each camera in place. You can then slide the cameras along the rail to achieve the desired distance between their optical centres. Once in position, retighten the screws to secure the cameras firmly.

The Novoflex QPL 450 is constructed from high-quality, durable materials designed to withstand the rigours of professional use. This robust construction ensures stability and resistance to flexing or bending under weight, which is crucial when mounting multiple cameras. The materials used also help to maintain a lightweight profile, making it easier to transport without compromising on strength.
